I'm going to New Mexico!

I'm a little bit stunned sometimes at how quickly the Lord works...

In three days, I will be going to a National Charismatic Leaders' Conference in Albuquerque, and I just got my plane ticket yesterday!!

Not more than a week ago, my friend Tammie, who works with the Charismatic renewal in Seattle, invites me to come to this conference on the weekend of Nov. 10-12 (and it's by invitation only!). I looked over the website (interesting), looked up flights (exorbitant), and promptly responded to her that, while I would love to go, it's just too last minute. Well, the Lord had other plans for me! After talking on Sunday with another good friend, who is also attending the conference, I completely changed my mind. So I emailed my boss who let me take Friday off, someone I know is graciously helping to sponsor my flight, I can stay with Tammie in her hotel room, and now I find myself headed for New Mexico!

The conference looks really wonderful, with amazing workshops and speakers, and I'm also thrilled to get to see some sunshine. While I am somewhat involved in leadership at my church right now, this took me entirely by suprise. I am so curious why the Lord wants me there...

I'll post all about it after I get back.
