Your prayers please

yeah you haven't heard much from me on the food front. Sorry I really need to get on that. For the time being I have been more than a little distracted by the tragedy that struck Joplin, MO on Sunday May 22nd. So far it is the single deadliest tornado in US history I think right now the death toll is at 125 and 1500 are still missing. From the moment I heard about it my heart has been yearning to go do whatever is necessary to help, I am sure many others have felt the same. Today I was presented with the opportunity to go down and work all day Saturday through the Samaritans Purse organization. I took some time to pray about it and I have decided to go, my boyfriend has decided to join me. With that said I want to beg you for your prayers. I know this will be the single most challenging thing I have ever done both physically and emotionally. Even still I know it wont be anything close to what the people there are going through. Please pray for my physical and emotional strength, please pray for my health as Saturday is supposed to be HOT and doing manual labor in the heat can sometimes be dangerous if one is not careful. Please pray that somehow someway God will use my efforts and the efforts of so many others to draw people to him. Please pray that if put in the situation God gives me the words of comfort or encouragement that someone needs to hear. Pray that we have a safe journey there and back and pray we make a difference. I am sure I missed something you will think of so please just take it to the Lord. I love you thank you for supporting me in prayer!
