More thoughts from the heart...

I was outside tonight doing some yard work, spending time with God talking to Him about my fears and excitement of what is to come. We leave for Haiti in exactly one week. I don't know if everyone goes through such emotion before going on a trip like this or if I am just hormonal but I just felt like recording it here.

Right before I was going to write, I noticed my friend Libby just updated a new blog posting. I love reading Libby's blog. She is an amazing writer and I am sure she will be the author of some amazing books one day. I am proud to have her in my life, she inspires me to grow deeper in my relationship with Christ.

After reading her new post I found myself connecting exactly with what she says in her blog. Please read it here for yourself.

Have a Happy Weekend!

Thanks, Car.

I love you and am so thankful for you! Thanks for the shout out :-)

I can imagine how many emotions must be swirling inside of you right now. You are about to step into the unknown, leave your children for a substantial amount of time, and pour yourself out in ways that are new and unfamiliar. All of this must evoke so much excitement and anxiety.

I love that God literally hand picked you to go on this trip and parted the seas for it to happen. I am so thrilled to get to watch how He uses you and grows you through the experience. I love that there is something unique about who you are that God decided was vital to this group of people going to serve.

Love you. Thanks so much for your encouraging comment. :-) See ya soon.
