I understand....I was sure I should leave in the 80's, but had to ask before I could go. He told me no.
About ten years later, I woke up one morning and He said it was time to go.

The dustiness speaks to me of:
Isaiah 52:1-3 Awake, awake, put on your strength, O Zion; put on your beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city; for henceforth there shall no more come into you the uncircumcised and the unclean.
Shake yourself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem; loose yourself from the bands of your neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
For thus says the Lord, You have sold yourselves for naught; and you shall be redeemed without money.

Isaiah 49:22-23 Thus says the Lord God, Behold, I will lift up my hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people; and they shall bring your sons in their arms, and your daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.
And kings shall be your nursing fathers, and their queens your nursing mothers; they shall bow down to you with their faces toward the earth, and lick up the dust of your feet; and you shall know that I am the Lord; for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.

Moroni 10:20-29 For if there is one among you that does good, he shall work by the power and gifts of God.
And woe to them who shall do these things away and die, for they die in their sins, and they can not be saved in the kingdom of God; and I speak it according to the words of Christ, and I lie not.
And I exhort you to remember these things; for the time speedily comes that you shall know that I lie not, for you shall see me at the bar of God, and the Lord God will say to you, Did I not declare my words to you, which were written by this man, like as one crying from the dead?
Yes, even as one speaking out of the dust?
I declare these things to the fulfilling of the prophecies.
And behold, they shall proceed forth out of the mouth of the everlasting God; and his word shall hiss forth from generation to generation.
And God shall show to you, that that which I have written is true.
And again I would exhort you, that you would come to Christ, and lay hold on every good gift and touch not the evil gift, nor the unclean thing.
And awake, and arise from the dust, O Jerusalem; yes, and put on your beautiful garments, O daughter of Zion, and strengthen your stakes, and enlarge your borders for ever, 
that you may no more be confounded, that the covenants of the eternal Father which he has made to you, O house of Israel, may be fulfilled.
Yes, come to Christ, and be perfected in him, and deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and if you shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and love God with all your might, mind and strength, 
then is his grace sufficient for you, that by his grace you may be perfect in Christ; and if by the grace of God you are perfect in Christ, you can in no wise deny the power of God.
