Spring Break Plans

It’s Spring Break, well at least in Nevada. And today we actually have great spring weather—finally. I am sitting with the windows open and thinking about my plans for the week.

· Monday—Spring pedicure. (Smiles!)
· Tuesday—Office work, etc.
· Wednesday—play day at the park with my grandson Michael. (Smiles!)
· Thursday—coffee with my writer friend Donna Savage & getting my hair done. (Smiles!)
· Good Friday—writing day and special worship service at my home church. (Smiles!)
· Saturday—Rest and writing, writing and rest.
· Easter Sunday—The Resurrection celebration—Easter dinner. (Double Smiles!)

Although my week sounds fun, there are hundreds people who are spending their week on short-term mission trips. I admire them. Several of my friends and relatives are making an eternal difference this week. They are celebrating Easter with a sacrifice of time and money. I believe the angels are smiling and the Father is saying “Well done, good and faithful servants.”

Let’s pray for them. As God brings them to mind, let’s lift up their safety and their efforts to be fruitful. With the chaos and turmoil happening in our world, all missionaries need our prayers. Whether they are short-term in Mexico or long-term in remote places on the globe, they need us to support them with prayer.

For the rest of spring break I am going to blog about one of my own mission trips. Also, I want to share about how a friend of mine who went from “chicken little” to “mighty warrior.” Stay tuned. . .

Thank you, Susanne, for your prayers for our trip to Mexico. We had a fantastic week and your prayers were vital.
