Its launch day! My squad is together again in Atlanta, preparing for an adventure of a lifetime!
Where am I, you ask? Well funny enough I am home… sitting on my bed… writing to you. Why, you ask? Well…
The simplest answer is that I did not meet my financial deadline to be able to leave today. I am still trying to wade through all the emotions and feelings surrounding this new development. I was sure B squad was where I was supposed to be, that I was supposed to be leaving for Peru with them. But is seems God has other plans. I would be lying if I said that this hasn’t destroyed me a little. I’m not sure how to put all of it into words but a small part of me feels like I failed, I failed myself, I failed my squad and I failed all of you. I know Gods plan is best and that He will use me whenever I leave but that was supposed to be today.
This has brought some things about me to light that I believe God wants to work on. I do not think signing up for B squad was a mistake, I loved being a part of their lives for the short time that I was. And I truly believe that God put me in that squad to bring me to this point of breaking so He can bring about a positive change in my life. I know that it all works together for His plans and that someday all this will be a source of praise and joy, and so I will praise Him today for His work that will reveal itself tomorrow.
So what now? Well I am excited to announce my new route with my new squad, I will be leaving in……………….OCTOBER!!!! YAY! My countries will change slightly so here is the new list,
India, Nepal, Vietnam, Cambodia, Botswana, South Africa, Swaziland, Argentina, Chile, Bolivia and Peru!!
Even though I am disappointed about B squad I am over joyed about this route and what God has for our squad. I love these people already and I can’t wait to live life alongside them!
