A New Phase...

Well, the announcement you have all been waiting for has arrived: I have decided to move to Ivanovo, Russia for two years! Ivanovo is about 186 miles northeast of Moscow. I am really excited and nervous all at the same time. I have been asking everyone to pray for clarity, and that is exactly what God gave me. He is so good. I'll leave for Russia around mid-April 2007. Stay tuned for more updates!!

Waiting...

I will run when I cannot walk
I will sing when there is no song
I will pray when there is no prayer
I will listen when I cannot hear

Sitting in the waiting room of silence
Waiting for that still soft voice i know
Offering my words up to the rooftop to Your heart
Trusting that this closet's where You are

Lord i know if I change my mind
You will change my heart in time
Sovereign Lord this time's from You
So I sit in the waiting room of silence
Cause its all about You

I will fight when I cannot feel
I will trust when You dont seem real
I will tell when I cannot speak
I will step when I cannot see
