Go?

"Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money."  Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow.  What is your life?  You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.  Instead, you ought to say, If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that.  As it is, you boast and brag.  All such boasting is evil.  Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins."  James 4:13-17

Dear friends,

I'd like to ask you to pray for me.  I don't usually use this blog as a personal place to request prayers but in case you read this, I'd appreciate yours and I thought, "Why not ask?"  I've been praying about doing something I don't necessarily want to do.  I think God is moving me again, and sooner than I thought, although not far away.  I don't know for sure, so I don't want to talk about it yet, but I've been praying and He's been answering.  I should know something by next week and if I do, it will be the closest thing to missionary work that I've ever done.  Here's my struggle:

God has been very good to me this past year.  I've regained much of the strength and health I'd lost in the past few years and I'm feeling ready to minister relationally again.  However, I've got no experience with the type of people I'll be living near.....at least I think I don't.  In my prayers I've been saying, "If this is it, then send me, but if it's not, please destroy the opportunity."  Part of me wants to go, for a variety of reasons and part of my just wants to stay longer in my comfortable place - my Jerusalem.  I'd love to share and hopefully soon I will, but in the meantime would you just pray?
