That is so exciting. One day I pray that I will be able to be involved with mercy ships. Praying for you all as you share the love of Christ!

After having been to the ship, I have a better understanding and acceptance of all the circumstances, the logistics, the details, the hearts and efforts of everyone there to give... So, I'm justifying the fact that since I've been to the ship, I spend less time in tears because I can see the realness of it and, being a detail and logistics person, understand a little more of what is happening. However...

This one made me cry--at first tears of sadness, but followed by tears of joy. Joy for Samson, joy for you, joy for the surgeon who will mend this man's life. Just so much joy. And those tears are good tears.

Yay! I am so glad that Samson was not overlooked, so glad that God's wise provision watched over the process and kept his name on the forefront of everyones minds even when a surgeon had to leave early....

I cannot imagine how emotionally tiring all these ups and downs on a regular basis must be... but I am so thankful that you gets ups as well as downs!
