Ok, once again it is just too much to catch anyone who might read this blog up on what has happened in my life/heart, so I am going to spare myself of 17 hrs and try to cut to the chase....try being the key word. :)
I am going back to Haiti from August 24-28th. This trip came about from MUCH stirring and prompting in my heart from God Himself. And even if I try or tried to deny that for whatever reasons, the details of the trip worked out faster than I could say (insert whatever you'd like here), which to me was even more comfirming that this is what I should do. I shared my plague like thoughts/desires/feelings/compassion with a couple of like-minded individuals and bam, whattayaknow we are heading there in August.
I can't explain it, because I don't know what all this entails. I know my heart is with some orphan kids(and the community, hec, all of haiti) I didn't even spend a ton of time with, and I know that I want them to know God and the gift of salvation more than anything. I know that I can't run from God and whatever way he might be calling me to serve Him by serving these people. I also know that I am scared and don't feel like I have enough faith, and that I hope to learn how to trust God with each step He places in front of me to take. I am a coward right now. But I trust He will change my heart and help me place my confidence in Him, not in me. His strength is made perfect in our weakness. So much peace in that.
Yea so that is the most recent knews and I don't have a ton of time right now, so I will continue to update about this aspect of my 'vapor in the wind' life as it plays out, Lord willing. I will also update later, maybe, about the townhouse I bought and what else God is doing in my heart/life...maybe. :)
And did I mention I am going to be an aunt? yea, i'm a wee bit excited. :)
In Him,
