So here I sit, with only $200ish (at last count at least) and just over a month to go before my sister and I are on our way to South Africa! Let me just say this, the Lord is good! The way He always provides blows me away. I really shouldn't be surprised at His faithfulness, because I have seen it over and over and then over again. He never fails to show off for His children!
So currently, life is good. Hectic, you know with the two jobs, fundraisers, getting some time with Gladys before we're seperated for like a year. =) The Lord is good and continues to show Himself over and over.
In about a month, I leave for South Africa. In January, I leave for Rwanda...for 6 months! A 3 month visit to Uganda, Sudan, Congo, Somolia, or Kenya may also be part of that =)
I'm missing my "summer home" (if thats what you want to call it) like crazy right now! Last year at this time, I was in South Africa, with my wonderful intern family. Ya know, living it up like a crazy missionary. It was the best!
But as much as I miss my two month home, I'm excited for it to be my two week home. Im excited for the ghetto nacho conversations my sister and I will (no question about it) have on the plane, to see my fam again, to love on my babies again, to share the Gospel in such a tangible way again. I'm so ready! I'm so ready that if the Lord was like "Oh, just kidding, you're flying out tomorrow" I'd be packed so fast, it would be insane!
But for now, I am where the Lord wants, where He's choosing to use my this summer. So, may my thoughts, actions and words always bring glory to my King. Let the way I work my jobs show off who my Daddy is. And may my heart be forever breaking for the sick, poor, needy, weak and lost.
