anticipation

In just a few days, our mission team will be heading to Honduras for a week. I must confess that I'm so excited about this trip that I've been packed for a week now. Sipping my first cup of coffee on the back porch, the words to a song floated into my consciousness...this is how I most often experience the voice of God. The song: "Sanctuary"..."lord prepare me to be a sanctuary, pure and holy, tried and true. With thanksgiving, I want to be a living sanctuary for you." With this melody tracking in my head, Orange, our cat, and I meandered to the labyrinth for a meditative walk. Sanctuary is worth pondering and may very well be my mantra for this upcoming trip.
