Everything had been covered in prayer all the way around , that hedging behind and before and we felt the covering. Our Lord had gone before us and set His people in position and the wheels started rolling long before we arrived.
And there were these Watchmen. The chosen ones who stand guard over the appointed subjects and the Lord had chosen well.
And it was under their watchful eye and their very careful attention to every detail that we were greatly cared for. Not one rock unturned, every detail had been previously prepared and each had a role, and isn’t that just like the body of Christ? 
Some were in the forefront and we saw the efforts and the pains they took on our behalf. But still, others were in the background, quietly and painstakingly serving, never to have the public applause of man. 
And under the guidance and hand of Jesus, and out of their obedience to their Master, these men and women of Christ served wholeheartedly, and they served us well. 
And how could it be that my heart is torn and stretched half way across the world? Over the ocean and the distance of twenty hours of air time my heart lingers still. And my mind is continuously drawn to them. 
And my Lord, well . . . He knew all along, it had always been His plan. He bids me to lift them up to Himself, to set at His feet in their behalf. His extravagant love for them drew me out and connected our hearts together, in Him.
I am overwhelmed by His faithfulness! 
You have hedged me behind and before, and laid Your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is high, I cannot attain it. Psalm 139:5-6
The Portion of my Inheritance
