Ok, so today has been just a day like most any other day. I got my tonsils out last week and I’m just finally starting to feel a little better today as my throat doesn’t hurt quite so bad. Today I have been going around and visiting kids that I am working with and I had one girl in particular that is on probation and had court today. So I went to the courthouse and although her probation officer and I have spoken quite frequently through email, today is the first time that I have met her. Somehow it came out that I am getting ready to go on this trip and she got really excited and asked who I was going with. It turns out that she went on a 3 month trip with AIM to Africa not too long ago. She was so happy for me and talked about how that trip completely changed her life and how God totally worked in her life. She was so excited for me as well and I just couldnt help but think of how God continues to show me that this is where he wants me to be. I know that I am not perfect and that I haven’t been living for him like I should, but I just want to completely take my life and put it in his hands. I want him to use this year to transform me into the person that he wants me to be and that he would show me what his will is for my life. I am ready to go and its instances like this that excite me to get going. His family is soooo big, and my life is just one small piece of the puzzle.
