thankful

i can't begin to tell you how thankful i am for the people i have in my life who have offered me so much support and encouragement as i prepare for this trip. whether it was unexpected financial donations, intentional conversations, prayers or following this blog - it really brought things into perspective for me - that people believe in me and believe in my heart.

it seems funny to type, and it isn't that i don't believe in myself - but there is something special about people taking an extra step to show their support, in so many ways, that allow you to look past daily disappointments or unmet expectations and see how God is really moving in your life.

i am blessed with people who do want to know my heart and be a part of this experience with me, and i couldn't ask for more as i get ready to leave.

thank you.

people have been asking me if i am excited for the trip and if i am feeling "ready". i can't figure out how to even communicate how much i need this trip right now and how excited i am.

so for now, my typical response stays at "come hell or high water, this trip is happening. it wasn't by accident and i can't wait to leave!"
