update

This past week was intense.

We were sitting on "hot coals" - waiting any minute for the news of an (immediate) RescueNet deployment for Japan - praying that God would let us know if Rich was to go or not.

We did sense he was to go - IF there was a deployment, but the word we (and the other international leaders) felt from God was WAIT.

Since nobody knew how long the WAIT was meant for, we waited every day.

Yesterday the leaders decided to step down from a deployment to Japan at this time.

Of course, things could always change again...

God is our refuge & strength, an ever-present help in trouble.

Therefore we WILL NOT FEAR,

though the earth give way & the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,

though its waters roar & foam & the mountains quake with their surging. Ps 46
