On Monday, I get on the plane to Haiti where I will be staying for one month. The next few weeks are going to be a big change, culturally and simply just in life. I have so many dreams for how this summer will go and regardless of how it does end up turning out, I know the Lord will provide so much for my team and I!
Everyone keeps asking me if I am nervous and I keep saying the same thing, “No.” If I am being honest, I am nervous a little bit but, not for the reasons some of you may expect. I’m nervous that I won’t know what to do when I get there, I won’t know what to say, and that I won’t be able to control my schedule (I’m a big planner). I’m also a little sad I won’t get to talk to my family every day, snuggle with my cat, and eat chickfila whenever I want but, all of those things will be waiting for me when I get back!
Every time I think of something to worry about, I also think of a BUT because I know that no matter what, God is on my side and I am putting it all in His hands!
Thank you to my family that has sacrificed time, money, and changing plans just to see me one last time. To my friends that have been checking on me, I love you guys and can’t wait to see you when I get home! My support system has been so big during this transition and I am so thankful for the people and opportunities the Lord has placed in my life!
I pray that during the next two months as my relationship with Jesus grows, that my family and friends take it as an opportunity to grow in their own relationships with Him as well. If any of you ever get worried or fear for me, just know that He is with you, He is faithful, and He has big plans for all of you!
Remember —
2 Timothy 1:7
“For God has not give us a spirit of fear, But of power and love and of a sound mind.”
It’s not goodbye, just a see you later! I love you all & next time you hear from me I will be in Haiti!!!
