Have you ever felt like that; so excited and yet so scared at the same time? Is it bad if I feel that way a lot? Oh geez, I should maybe talk to my therapist. 😉
Anyway, I feel just like Rapunzel at times. Which by the way if you haven’t seen Tangeled….you should, the movie is adorable.
Now I am not upset because I have disobeyed my mom, but it’s the mix of emotions I can relate to. Signing up for this race has really been like a roller coaster, mind you more up’s than down’s…which is good, but good greif, the down’s are super hard.
Leaving!
Away from my family! Leaving my AWESOME job!
Selling my stuff!
No nightly warm showers!
Missing the Bachelor season 16 (kidding…kind of)!
The UNKNOWN—for 11 months!
The “downs” of this roller-coaster of emotions have been hard to get through. It’s just scary. One thing (there are lots of things but this is a big one) that keeps me going is when I look in my account and find that I have another donation….I am overwhelmed. The people who have given in any capacity have kept me going. I have some awesome people supporting me. So thank you. Thank you for your sacrifice. Thank you for being a part of what is going to take place this next year.
To the Brice family, the Montgomery Family, Joseph, and my mom : THANK YOU for working the garage sale.
THANK YOU to everyone who donated to the garage sale.
To Laura Gregerson and Carolyn Bogaski for selling your products and donating the proceeds to my trip: THANK YOU!
To those of you who have given $550: THANK YOU!
To those of you who have given $30: THANK YOU!
God has used all of your generous acts to encourage me during this time of preparation for the trip. I am so excited to see what God is going to do this next year. I don’t think I am able to even imagine what God has in store for me, and the people that YOU minister to though me, around the world.
Another thing that keeps me going is knowing that I am in the will of God, and I'd rather be scared in God's will than comfortable in my own desires.
Financial Update:
$5,786 in the account.
$9,714 to go! 🙂
