anticipation is overrated

After months of planning and getting ready for things to change so much, i'm ready to get going....In twenty-four hours, my little sister graduates high school and prepares for college. In two days, my parents will be moving to a new house i won't even live in until Christmas time. Also, in two days, I leave the country to go serve in Italy for two months. I've been taking a break with family and friends in Oregon for the last month and as much as I have enjoyed catching up, it's time to go do the things I was created to do. There's this calling, these things, that each of us was designed to be good at because God is great and has a plan.When we do that one thing...when we're in the element that God customized to fit just us, there's nothing else in the world that would satisfy the feeling of knowing that what you're doing is just right. Some of you know what i'm talking about and some of you are still seeking to find that. It's one of the most incredible miracles and it so shows us the character of the Lord. I'm sick of feeling the anticipation and I'm ready to see things happen. So, here I go...with a little fear, a ton of excitement, and some overrated anticipation...let's go change the world.

Isaiah 1:17 says, "Learn to do right; seek justice.Defend the oppressed.Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow."

While I'm in Italy, I'll be blogging abut what's going on, so go ahead and read if you're interested and please pray for the missionaries, the kids, the other interns, and myself! thanks!
