It seems rather surreal to know that I’m committing to this trip. It’s still a while off, but I know it will come faster than expected. I have a million questions for God, but the one that keeps coming up is “What am I getting myself into?” I know the answer to that, so I don’t know why I keep asking it. It’s almost like a comfort to ask it, though…as if it’s the reminder that I am following God’s will, and not just doing this because of my own desires. I know that this is my call right now–a call to obedience in this trip. I don’t know what lies ahead for all of us, but I know God has all things in control, and He knows exactly what is in store. I rest in that knowledge.
