Kris and I are packed (almost!) and we are set to leave. How do you fully prepare for a trip like this when it is something you have never done? We will discover when we get there whether or not we have everything we need. All of your prayers and encouragement over the last year will come to a new revelation when we meet our kids for the first time on Monday. We can't wait to share this moment with you. Here's a close up of our kids as they wait for us to come.

God promises that we will have everything we need in Heaven. How do you fully prepare for this trip when it is something you have never done? My best answer is to place the preparation in some capable hands - hands that are proven to be able to get you there. Hands that have prepared the trip for many others. Hands that are constantly ready to prepare the trip for more. Hands that belong to the One who said He was "the way, the truth and the life!" Are you packed and ready to go?
