Wow. God has been incredible the past month, showing me that
this was in fact His will for me. There are still some things to be worked out
(namely, funding and training camp) but that will come with time and prayer.
This morning, I was like, “Alright, God, I have no idea how you’re going
to work out the details and get me and my stuff to training camp when we’re
supposed to be there but I know you can do it.” I know He’ll work it out;
I’m interested to see how.

Life is crazy, as
always. Work, work, and sickness. Meh. I hate being sick… Count it all joy,
though, right? God, please help me to see Your hand in this! I’m working hard,
right now at getting better. I have to say, several days off in a row and just
sitting around and resting has been a nice reprieve and has allowed me to get a
lot of things done around the house that I needed to. But I’m ready to start
working again! I plan on earning a lot of money for this trip by working
myself. I feel like God has given me the ability and the means and will bless
me in this.

However, I feel like He
still wants me to raise some support from others. I have several ideas –
support letters, a pancake breakfast/dinner held at church, selling my artwork,
or possibly doing something similar to a 30 hour famine fast where I raise
money to go without food for a certain period of time. Or maybe I should do a
facebook fast… Guys, any ideas?

In the meantime, if you
know anyone who would like to purchase artwork, I’m taking orders! Drawings
make great gifts, especially if they’re of a treasured pet or an important
moment in your life. Prices – $20 for a 4×6, $25 for a 5×7. Or whatever you
feel like giving 🙂 If you would like it framed, then the price is probably
gonna be about $10 more to accommodate for that.

God bless! *hug* ^_^
