In 20 hours, I will be somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean on my way to Zambia (via Amsterdam and South Africa).  IN 20 HOURS!! WHOA!!

*Enter reality* 

I am honestly super excited for this trip.  It will be my second time back to Zambia and I KNOW God is going to do some wicked awesome things! I am SO PUMPED for it!!

But 20 hours! wow… reality hit today.  Nerves hit today.  Continue to pray for God's love and peace to overcome me and hold me during this time.  I know I have gone before, but it feels like I am going for the first time…which is odd cause until earlier this week-there were no nerves-just excitement. PURE excitement.  ( I think I am getting Deja vu flashback from a previous post on this similar topic that I wrote…oh well!)

It feels surreal.  I can't imagine what the night before going on the World race, will feel like.  Now, I will only be gone for just over 2.5 weeks…where as on the race I will be gone for 11 months…HELLO REALITY!!! 

*Breathe Nikki Breath*

God's got you.  God's got ME

I am holding to this verse..it will be my joy and comfort.

"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline."

2 timothy 1:7

 

*I look forward to updating my blog upon returning home Nov. 24-until then..whether you know me or not-I ask that you keep me and my team, in your prayers.  Thank you**
