The Ups and Downs




Well here it is just one week and one day to departure! What can I say!? This whole thing started out last year about this time with me telling myself that I could never do a thing like go on a mission trip to an Orphanage! Now here I go on an adventure with the Lord! He has asked me to go with Him on this journey. I continue to battle the 'WANT TO'. I was telling a friend that I feel a little like Jonah right now in the sense that I don't want to go! BUT... I am so excited about going with my Lord to see taste and touch, just experience and learn all that He has for me! I know the saying is that when there is fear that means that you are not trusting. I don't want to have this fear of the 'UNKNOWN' I so much want to embrace every single detail of this journey.
Through these last 5 months I have gone from overflowing excitement and fearless to cowering in fear hoping something will happen that will cause me to have to stay behind from this trip. I am coming out of that cowering in fear to the excitement today, fear fear go away and never come back! I choose today to TRUST Jesus to take care of all my needs, wipe away all my fears and to comfort my heart when it gets broken!
