And The Number Shall Be Three! No More! No Less!
I leave for Czech/Ukraine in three days. I can't believe it's here. I am finally getting to go back overseas! I feel like this been one of the longest years of my life. I have gone through a lot in this year (May 2006 to May 2007):
*Got accepted to JV
*Took a last minute FBC team to Ukraine
*Started raising support
*Traveled for recruitment job at CBC--the last time
*Had the hardest/best talk ever with my sister
*Went to JV training in Chi-town
*Continued raising support (a little discouraged at this point)
*Went to missionary training in Colorado (encouraged about support raising)
*Cracked my tailbone (worth it)
*Made friends who are all over the world (Croatia reunion...someday, someday)
*More support raising (extremely discouraged)
*Got TEFL certified (kicked my REAR)
*Had some more hard but really good talks with the rest of my family
*Said goodbye to CBC
*Cried a lot (pretty much all year)
*Support Raising boom (extremely encouraged)
*Packed up my apartment (still in the process)
*Lost my plane ticket for this summer's trip (yep, that happened today...a panic attack ensued)
*Leave for summer camps in Ukraine...in 3 days.
*Still raising support (praying for a miracle this summer!)
Perseverance, Trust, and Patience have been the big themes of this LONG year. God has taken me through a lot...definitely times I wasn't sure if I was on the right path...but He continues to confirm this road I'm on, so I will keep walking...running if I have to (and you know how much I hate to run!).
"Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you saying, 'This is the way; walk in it.'" Isaiah 30:21
