I'm Hungary....
If you've ever spent time with me, guaranteed you've heard me say this a time or two or maybe more. If I was one of those dolls that said sayings every time you pulled a string, this would be one of them. So it's kindof funny and pretty destined that I'm going to Hungary for 5 weeks in the summer. Crazy how that works..
There are some things in life that don't work out and were just never meant to be, and there are some things that just fall into place and you know that it was completely meant to be, even though it may not have been in the plans. Its crazy how fast God can make things like this work out. In one week, I started out only thinking about going on LST and then by the end of that same week, I was fully committed to going and everything fell perfectly into place. If that wasn't reassurance enough about going, this last weekend, which was spent at the IT weekend in Medicine Hat, reaffirmed that this is exactly what I'm supposed to be doing and that no matter how busy I am this semester or what else is going on, God will make it work. It also reaffirmed the fact that I'm going on this trip with two other girls that were also meant to go. A couple years ago I didn't even know these girls and now we are preparing for one of greatest adventures ever together; how cool is that! I'm stoked for a summer of teaching, being taught, sharing my faith, and cracking sweet jokes with Joy and Joni! Can't get much better than that!
Africa will always have my heart! Being the first place I traveled, it will always be my first love. Someday I am excited to hopefully go back there and use what I've learned in school to change lives and be changed. I also know that my heart will be able to love many other places and for that I'm so excited to experience a new place; a place that is completely foreign to me, a place that can potentially get my heart as excited as Africa does. That thought just makes me so excited!
What a sweet thing to have in 2009! There is so much potential and possibility and I'm stoked beyond belief...
