Humbling Journey

Last day in America. 
I am sitting in the airport of Miami, FL, waiting to fly out to Guatemala. Wow. This is really happening. 
All week long I have been clinging to the things that I know- instead of the emotions I feel. Of course
I could feel lonely, and I could be scared, and I could fear what is to come. But instead, I remain positive.
I king I the fact that my Father loves me so much that he allows me to be a vessel for his Kingdom.
He loves me enough to have a perfect future set before me if I only choose to allow his plans to fall into place. 
I hold on the the times I have been on my knees and he whispers sweet stillness inside of me that calms every nerve. He is saying, “you are exactly where you need to be.” 

That is so full of truth and power. Our God constantly speaks truth into our lives if we just allow him to work and move inside of us. 
For me- I get in my knees. There is something about completely humbling myself before the Creator of the universe. As I am on my knees, I can’t help but to be thankful. 
To always think:
Without you, I could not stand on my own. 
Without you, I would not have the blessings that I do. 
Without you, where would I find my hope? My comfort? The truth?
Without you, I would be lost. 
Without you, I would be nothing. Nothing. 
But by your grace, I am set free. 
By your love, I have been made new. 
By your provision, I am here. 
By your promises, I am something. 
And with you, everything is possible. 

Rejoice in the Lord, Always. 

I sing that to myself. 
It is what gets me by when I want to cry because I miss home, or because I only got 2 hours of sleep and it was on hard tile floor in the Miami airport, or just because something isn’t going my way… I sing. I rejoice in the Lord. 

My prayer is that I continue to rejoice in the Lord. Because He is good. He deserves it. He is worthy. 

And I hope that you all can pray this same thing for my heart. And do the same in your own. 

Thank you for following me. Thank you for praying for me and donating to me financially. The Lord has truly made each of you a blessing in my life. 

And the journey is just about to begin..
Big things are to come. My team and I will be in Puerto Barrios, Guatemala for the next month. We will be doing different mission work. Working with the orphans, children in schools, the homeless, and bringing food to people in the mountains. 

I will be updating my blog the next possible time. I cannot wait to share my stories that I get to experience with all of you. It is going to be amazing. 

This experience is completely humbling. I am so blessed. Thank you for being a part of it all.
