The most exciting part about launch was arriving and hearing someone say you’re leaving in a few day. The worst part about launch is when they keep talking and don’t let you jump on a plane right then and there. Patience was never my strong suit, I’ve always a driven person. within the last few days of launch I’ve been reminded by God to stop and listen. I would get so frustrated with him, ask him why he would stop talking to me. Thinking that I had made one to many mistakes and had forever messed up my communication with him. He answered me, while I sat around an airport all day. Patience, stop, wait and listen. slowing down is not the end of the world, he was reminding me that slow time is not wasted time. Even when I don’t have a plan, He has does. Let that be enough. God put me in my place today, getting ready for this trip he put me in a position of freedom. I just have to love and trust in him and his plans for me. If he wants me to stay all 11 months on the field he will send money for fundraising, if he wants me to be safe from harm he will lead me to the right people, and if he wants me to speak to people in his name his words will flow from my mouth. I was told to go, this is of his will and not my own. I will choose to not force my will on Gods plan for me with this trip. He probably knows more than a 21 year old American 😉
