Isnt it amazing how much of a rock our God is? I have been coming to appreciate that aspect of His character a lot more lately. My rock, my fortress, my stronghold - My God. As I flail about like a fish out of water, He just scoops me up into His hands; not intimidated by the mountains of fear in my life. That feeling in my heart alone makes this entire trip worth it already. Thank you Lord, for never-moving, never-failing, and always loving me.
With all my panic, I have just felt so unlovable these past few days and yet He showers me with it. In this frantic state, I have found myself whining to the Lord and as my true Father He just tells me to "Hush child". The idea of silence is a hard one for me and my character, but on this journey I am beginning to appreciate the value of a whisper. And when I finally do "hush up", He whispers His love to me whether its in the breeze that makes the trees blow or the baby in Starbucks smiling at me.
So by standing on a rock and feeling the gentle breeze, I could not be more excited for Australia!!! I cant wait to meet the people that will be my family for the next 6+ months, to see the beautiful country, to dance solely for my God, and to rely completely on my Father who loves me.
Please pray for me fellow brothers and sisters! I could use prayer for my fundraising (I am about $5000 away YAY GOD), prayer for my health that is always a battle, and pray that everything this trip brings knocks me into the arms of Jesus.
Oh, and if you would like to receive monthly emails on my trip please give me your email! And also be in prayer for my friend Kristen who is going to England with YWAM (YAY GOD)!!!
