last night we had another team meeting in preparation for our trip. our tickets are purchased, we have an official packing list and our [flexible] itinerary is set. one month from tomorrow we will be setting out on an incredible journey to india!
i can't begin to tell you how excited i am for this trip. not only because i love to travel and am excited to get to know the people of india, but for the relationships that will form, the things i will learn and the things that will most likely break me and open my eyes up to something that could completely change my life.
as my husband so tenderly puts it, i am an "easily excitable person". i go from zero to sixty and am full speed ahead at most anything. i am a dreamer and find so many things fascinating it is hard to resist the draw to fully engage. however, in doing that, i also tend to put unrealistic expectations on a LOT of these things.
it would be a lie to say i don't have big expectations for this trip. however, we have a pretty big God that can fulfill them. and even though i have expectations - they are simply for an incredible journey. as for what happens when we are there or what i learn, see or do...i honestly can't even begin to imagine it all to even set an unrealistic expectation in the first place.
so here's to trusting God has something great in store and sitting back to enjoy this journey!
