So I'm Ready to Go...Right?

 

Passport: check. 

Camera: check. 

Shoes: check.

So I'm ready to go, right? 

Hardly. Although I am much closer to booking plane tickets now than I was this time last week, I still have a little way to go before I can make any purchases. Wait...what? The fact that I am booking my own plane tickets is an adventure in and of itself! I have never done this by myself before (let alone to another country). I also have never, ever been away from my family and friends for [almost] two months before. 

I signed myself up for this, but frankly, I am a little bit overwhelmed. I know that this is all a part of God's bigger picture though, and that I shouldn't be worried about it. God even says "Do not be anxious about anything" (Phil. 4:6), and who am I to question what God says? So, by prayer and petition, I will be presenting my request for peaceful thoughts to God!

And really, what better way is there to start a mission trip journey?

I bet you are wondering where the picture came from, since my camera is in the picture. Or maybe you are not. But either way, my wonderful friend Ashley took it for me!
