It's bed time in Portland. We made it safely to our destination, and we are hitting the hay with full bellies, anxious hearts, and excited minds. It will be a short night's sleep this evening as tomorrow will bring a 3:30 am wake-up and day of work. I was impressed with the cohesion of the team even on the trip over. I have already challenged them, as they have seen their van assignments are a bit unusual. I have done my best to split up "cliques" and put together challenging groups that will force some to step up and lead and others to accept a different than usual position in humility. I am excited, the team is excited, and thank you all for your prayers. You will hear from us tomorrow after a day of travel and team building. Until then, we sleep with this in our hearts:
"The people walking in darkness have seen a great light. On those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned." Isaiah 9:2 (NIV)
Lord Jesus- Make it so. Make us people who bring light. Amen
