Getting ready for an overseas mission trip as a father and husband is not simple.
Take tonight, for instance. I am packing as if I leave tomorrow, when in fact I leave the day after. Why? Well, I need to prepare for being gone -- pay the bills, return borrowed items, do anything I can so my wife doesn't have to deal with it while I'm gone -- before I can actually pack my bags.
It's all worth it, though. I have no idea what the next two weeks will bring, but regardless I am about to do something most people rarely find the opportunity to do -- something I really believe in. Something that matters.
And I realize that I'm one of the lucky ones.
