As many of you know I went to Swazi for a month this past summer, came back and am in college in Chattanooga. I couldn't ask for anything better...I love it here: great friends, great job as after school counselor at YMCA, volunteering at Tennessee Baptist Children's Home, school is good, fam is great, etc. Then one day Jesus asked me if I would lay it all down for Him; to lose everything in order to gain Him. He asked me if I would trust Him and give Him all of my heart. SO here I am jumping in and just trusting Jesus with the rest.
This season of life over the past 3 months has been incredible. God has been teaching me dependency on Him and ultimately been taking me so much deeper in an intimate love realtinship with him. its so beautiful and i wish i could articulate it to you, ahhhh God is such a good loving daddy!!!!!
I have the priveledge of going on a 9 Month mission trip with AIM(adventures in missions). I will leave in September of 2013 and return May of 2014. I will spend 3 months in a country in Central America, 3 in Africa, and 3 in S.E Asia. In order to do this I need to raise $12,000. I need your help to continue in the path Jesus has for me. He will provide and always has. I pray you consider being apart of that providence-whether that's actually giving, praying, or pointing me in the direction towards unique ways to raise $$$$.
Because it is so expensive, I will be transferring to MTSU for this upcoming Spring semester and attend a summer semester as well in order to save money and get ahead in school.
Please pray alongside me as this is a huge leap of faith. Moreover, please pray for my mom and dad as it's a huge transition for them as well. Pray for comfort and peace over there hearts as they watch there firstborn travel a road of uncertainty and faith. Pray for this journey we are all on together.
Thanks,
