I keep trying to wrap my mind around what is my life and I keep coming up with no words. This past week I graduated from college, moved states, got a part time job figured out a general plan for my travels to training camp, got my car in better running condition, and have popped a tire on one of my parents cars. 

I have been speechless as to what has happened this past week and am still trying to wrap my mind around what it looks like to be a college graduate. This is a very interesting time in my life so much that I do not even understand how I am doing it. 

I can only take credit for so much. It has been my life to this point that I get summers off and I go to work and figure out what the next semester is to look like. This time its a bit different though because I am leaving the country in a little more than 2 and 1/2 months. It all seems like a dream. 

However this is my reality and God has gotten me to this point and has made me realize how prideful and how weak I am in my own strength. I am doing a thing that only Christ can do and I have been chosen to be the messenger for Him. I chose into the hard the rough the tiring for Christ and I am choosing to follow with all that I have. I am choosing to be homeless with Him. For I am his I have no other. I am confronting fears, I am confronting challenge, and I am confronting change. 

I am putting forth effort and following through with passion and courage to get things done and get funded for the mission trip. You can and have been supporting me via prayer and I have felt the prayer a bunch this past month and if you feel lead to support me financially it would be of great help. God will raise the money I am only asked to put forth effort. 

This time of change is only preparing me for what is to come and I look forward to my travels over the next 6 weeks to training camp and then over the nest year around the world. 

May you rest in the grace and love of Christ,
