The Joy of Life!

Life. A gift. An amazing opportunity to be alive, enjoying the beauty and circumstances that flow from all that surrounds. A chance to serve. laugh. give. receive. impact. Living in the present. Trusting and being filled with peace. TRUE peace from within. Past events and memories not to consume. Future and forbearing left to be discovered as they melt into the present. Thankfulness for this moment.

Indescribable Thankfulness

As I sit here late at night (at least for me), I can’t help to feel beyond thankful. There’s this indescribable feeling…wow...

Usually when I travel I go alone. I save my money and then I leave.

This time though I’ve been in school, only working part time. The situation is a bit different, but still I had planned to manage on my own.

But then something happened. I thought it would be a small help…but people ended up blessing me and over half the cost of my trip is paid for! Incredible. Unexpected.

The finical part is nice, but there is something SO very much more about it. It’s like I know people are behind me. I can’t quite express how I feel. It’s a silence that goes deep. People gave from their hearts, and I know I am supported and taking them with me. It’s a humbling thing for me. (I like to be independent). So many unexpected people helped me, and I know for a few finances are tight! It’s a bit overwhelming (but in a good way).

As I sit here typing with an extremely busy week of finals ahead of me, I am looking forward to the near future. I can’t wait to see the Morels and join them in their ministry! Anticipation.

    Woman's Life met this afternoon and they were so pleased at the money that was raised for your trip and ministry to Bolivia last month. We also passed around the Woman's Life magazine that had two excellent, fun pictures of the two of us at Girl's Week-end! They said to let you know they are praying for you. Love, Mom
