perfection

Remember that old childhood game with the little pieces on the board that you push down with the timer and you had to get them all in before the timer ended and the board popped and messed up all your work and it was SO STRESSFUL?!?!?!
I sure do! Well, my life right now feels like that game. With new classes, tons of homework, stuff at youth group, the church musical, work and trying to find another job, plus learning to drive, picking out colleges, and trying to decide if I'm going to Ireland on a missions trip this summer. I'm just trying to fit all the pieces into their specific holes before it pops and everything gets ruined.

So talking about Ireland is a little more relaxing, because I don't know all the details yet and I'm just praying about it.
So here's the gist:
I'd be going to a town about 5 minutes from Dublin, Ireland for two weeks to work with a group called Ireland Outreach Organization. Their whole purpose is to spread the word about Jesus Christ's works-free salvation to the mainly Roman Catholic population, taking adavantage of the national law that religion of all forms is to be taught in public schools. I would be going with my "aunt beth and uncle dan" (really good friends of my parents) and their three kids (daniel 7, matthew 5, lizzy 3). The opportunity for me to travel again (I still miss Nairobi, Kenya every day) would be fabulous, especially because the youth group missions trip this year will probably be local at best.
So I don't know what the plan is yet, but if it is God's will for me to travel to Dublin, Ireland this summer, I will gladly follow :]
