Beloved,

    It is the second day of blogging I have so much to say. But not sure who to say it to. I usually write to God, unless I am praying, so this is different writing to people about my life. I am not one to post too much about my ongoing day online. So as these blogs go by I am sure it will get easier. But for now, I suppose I will be super overanalyzing this blog journey as I navigate life and use discernment as to what to write and what not to write. I am so super excited for the new year, really just the new adventure God has me on.

       It actually started last year as He prepared my heart. And He still is, it is like 2015 all over again. When He prepared my heart for Uganda He gave me this desire to travel to a place I had never even heard of and love on the people I didn’t even know, but now have come to call my home away from home. I feel He is calling me back there. This year in May. He has given me every reason to go and no reason to stay, except the obvious obstacle for any missionary. Finances. Though, as my life is a walk of faith, I know He will provide if it is will that I shall return. I am willing and God is able, so I am preparing physically, emotionally, spiritually and scripturally. I will also be preparing bookmarks and hopefully some song lyrics to give to some of the places I travel 🙂 . 

        It is a blessing, just to be able to prepare and pray for such an opportunity. And I know God is calling me to travel the world this year. Prayerfully starting with TJ, Mexico next month, I praying to visit an orphanage with a local church. I have been practicing my Spanish and praying for more opportunities to love globally. This year is exciting but often times it is very scary, because this is the first year where God hasn’t given me the full plan, He has given 10 percent of what He has in store for me and says, trust Him with the 90% and so I am. With my eyes open, focused on His light not the obstacles and challenges that surround me, my hand in His, and my chucks double laced, chasing after my God. Faithfully.
