this past month has been still. the atmosphere has been quiet but oh man the Lords voice has been so loud. 

 

Currently my squad and I have been living in a small village in Ethiopia on an orphanage. Most days are filled with playing with the kids who live here or cutting grass. In this past month of quietness I’ve been able to be so much more intentional with my relationship with the Lord. 

Guatemala was filled with so much distraction and the first months of the race I felt like I needed to change, I needed to perform. But in reality all I needed to do was be still and listen. I needed to wait and become willing to let the Lord work in my life. When you pull away from the busy lifestyle you make room for the Lord to work on your heart. I used to look at a life without social media, set plans or new adventures as boring or pointless but oh my goodness I was so so wrong!! being unplugged has created so much space for the Holy Spirit to move!! It’s felt so quiet and still but the Lord has been so present.  

I’ve been doing really well, I’ve been learning so much and I absolutely love it here and I’m so happy with this season of my life. I’m so thankful to be living this life and I can’t wait for the next steps! Thank you guys so much for all the support and prayers it means the world to me!!
