16 days out now, and things are getting interesting. They continue to shift, and God continues to cause us to rely on Him for steadiness. First, the good news--Isaac got his visa! It arrived in the mail on Saturday and gives him the permission and documentation he needs to travel to Romania and gain re-entry to the US upon his return. Now the bad news--he has decided not to travel with us on this trip. His wife has some real hesitations about him leaving for Romania for two weeks while she stays home in the US with three children in a new city with a pending home search and various other personal and family matters to attend to. That is certainly understandable, and I appreciate that Isaac takes his family priorities seriously enough to receive that God is calling him to that over Romania at this time! He remains excited
about our trip and will join us the next time round.
Without Isaac, our trip is still on, but it will certainly change. Isaac has put a lot of work into planning each day of our trip, and we now have to work with a different host who has not been so intimately involved with all of the planning, etc. Please be praying for smooth interactions with everyone we encounter in Romania and that God would provide us with a good host/interpreter/guide as we traverse Romania over a week's time. God is once again testing me and insuring that Igive up control to Him. Yikes!
More to come...
