And so Mallory's journey has begun full force. She called me once from the Tyler airport and then again from the Austin airport... she and her 12 other co-counselors began their first and second leg to Guatemala. I prayed for her this morning... God keep her safe, surround her by the guardian angels that you appointed to her before she was born. This is Your mission, not Mallory's, not Pine Cove's, Yours. My heart is not strong. How did You send Your Son so willingly? How did you sacrifice Him for us, so unworthy? I can't even send my daughter without hesitation for ten days!!! Knowing full well in my heart she will be safe... You, knowing full well, He will be crucified and die for the sins of the world..... my heart is tiny... Yours is giant and good. Thank you Lord for your Son and for sending my girl on this mission, the mission of her heart... the mission of Your heart.
mom, you are a tremendous woman. even if your heart is tiny compared to the LORD's (all of ours are) it sure can hold a LOT of love. :)
