To my Friends and Family back home.
I love you.
I made it to Georgia! It was so good to be reunited with my family!! Seeing everyone was so good, I can't wait for everyone else to arrive.
Thank you for letting me go. This is something I need to do. I can see it and I am so thankful for this opportunity. I can see the work that is going to be done, not just in the world, but in my own life. It is going to be good. You have given me to God for a year. This is the best possible place you could give me. Into the Father's hands. I can promise you that I will come back changed. I am so excited for the way I will grow this year. It is going to be a challenge. It is going to be fun. I will be tested. I will become the woman God created me to be. I will come back with a better understanding of God, I won't know everything because even God Himself said that no one can comprehend all that He is. (but I am really excited to move closer to him.) I will also have a better understanding of who I am and the direction my life will take.
I have also been told that this trip isn't it.
"Really God, there's more?!"
I think traveling around the world, visiting 11 countries in 11 months is pretty intense. It was revealed to me that because of saying yes to this, more amazing things are to come. This doesn't end after 11 months. How awesome is that? I don't know what those awesome things will be. I am just encouraged and super excited for life.
"For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." ~Jeremiah 29:11
Can you tell that I am super pumped up?! 'Cause I am. I have this crazy excitement inside that I feel like I could scream.
Thank you again for all your support and prayers.
Love you,
Paige
On a side note. Might have packed a little too much again. (My pack is so stinkin' heavy!!) I also learned a valuable lesson in packing. Always pack toiletries in plastic bags. I had a little spillage in my bag. No worries, my entire bags smells of soap now. It is quite pleasant.
