Uncertainty

It is so crazy how life can change in an instant. It seems as though my life has been in limbo for the past month. I was supposed to be going back to Ukraine March 5th. And it was not until I think, 2 days before that I knew that was not going to happen because the unrest there. It was such a hard process. To this day, I hold so much guilt about not being there. Ukraine has been my home for 6 six years.  We have worked hard to rid ourselves of the "American" stereotype and to build trust with the kids there. I feel as though we had finally gotten there and when things got hard or unsafe we left.  Now, I know there is so much more that went into it. It was with a lot of prayer and discernment from others that we came to the decision we did. But it doesn't make it any easier.  Okay, enough of my rambling. The plan right now is to fly back on April 2nd. This is of course if there is not a full blown war and we are still able to go. I know this makes many of my family and friends uneasy. But I have to believe that God will protect me in the way He sees fit. I still feel called to Ukraine for now and this includes when things are in chaos.  My time is not finished yet, at least I hope not. We have escape/evacuation plans we are working on if need be.  I do appreciate everyone's support and love. And please keep the prayers coming. I will try and keep the updates coming as I know what the plan is.
