So many emotions, so many thoughts fill my mind. Am I ready? Do I have everything? Is my heart ready to be broken again?
A scripture that has been placed on my heart this week: "Then he reassured her: 'Courage, daughter. You took a risk of faith, and now you are well.'" (Matthew 9:22 The Message)
A risk of faith. A leap of faith. As Christians we are called to trust in the Lord and follow Him.
So here I am...taking a risk of faith. About to get on a couple airplanes and be in another country for 2 months. Am I excited? Oh ya!!! Am I anxious? Well, ya. Am I crazy? Probably. Am I loving this journey that I am on thanks to Jesus? Most definitely.
And hey, I get to travel with this beautiful person!
Yep, we could use your prayers. It's going to be a long and hopefully wonderful trip but we have to make sure we don't kill each other first :P
Pray for:
- Safe travels
- The other interns and teams also traveling
- The Swazis
- The children
- The kokos (The grandmothers)
- The ministry partners
- Erica (one of the missionaries)
- Peace and rest
- Our families and friends
- And anything else that God puts on your heart
Again thank you all for all the support and prayers and encouragement during this journey. You guys are all awesome and I will miss you.

What a great version of that verse! Because she took a risk of faith, she allowed the Lord to make her well. May you take great risks of faith, leaning on the Lord that he may continue to make you well. amen.
