At some point last week, my verse of the day was: "Don’t worry about tomorrow. It will take care of itself. You have enough to worry about today." and it slapped me right across the face.

Here I am, preparing for this amazing journey but all I seem to be doing is thinking about tomorrow, wishing that July would get here, and forgetting about what is going on right now. I am forgetting about the people here that I can directly impact on a daily basis.

I was reading a blog tonight from a racer currently on the field… She said that she was promising to not wish her race away. Well you see, i am faced with a similar problem, I am wishing today and tomorrow away here in the United States. I am forgetting that God has me HERE for a reason. There is a reason that He didn't call me to January 2013, there is a reason that for the next 6 months, He has me right here where He wants me.

There are so many memories to be had still right here in America and by wishing that it was July, I am taking away so many of those memories.

So for the next 5 months… I want to hug my boyfriend tighter, call my family as often as I can, love on my cousins, have sleepovers with my girlfriends, make mends and fix fences with those that I can and just enjoy the day here, right where God has me.

Tomorrow and July will take care of itself and I know this time next year, i will be wishing to be right back here in the USA.
