Alright. So I've been here in Michigan for a month now, and tomorrow we leave staff trainig and begin life on the road for the 2011-2012 travel season. I'm so excited, and I can't wait to get into my first host home. Just imagining wha God can do this year, and knowing that he can do more than I've ever imagined is so wonderful.
Since I left Missouri a month ago, God has opened my eyes, and taught me so much. He has taken me on a rough journey the last five years, and I'm not without my scars and issues. But I finally have some perspective. For the first time I have the faintest glimmering of a why. I know I will never see the full extent of what his plan was, or why he did it, but from here I can see his hand in the past.
Times I thought I was all alone, times I didn't want to take another breath because it hurt so much, times I almost gave up... He was there. God was there.
So now I'm a team member of Life Action Ministries. I have no idea how I got here, or why the leadership accepted my application. My motives for applying were not as holy as perhaps they looked. But I'm here.
High school is over, real life starts now. I'm independent, a fighter, I'm strong, I've been to hell and back again. I have the all powerful most high God on my side, at my side, under my wings, guarding my flight.
Bring it on.
