Six Days

In just six days I will be embarking on a trip to Nicaragua. I have so many emotions running from the tips of my fingers all throughout every inch of my body. I get this strong tingle in my tummy when I try to think of what's to come, because I'm clueless. These past few weeks I have been battling some inner demons which I strongly believe play an enormous part as to why I feel as if I am not ready for this trip. At the end of the day, I know who I am only because I know who I belong to. With this settled in concrete at the center my heart, I know that the second I set foot into this country, I will be filled with purpose, vision, and willpower to complete the mission that God has set me out to do. Until then, every bit of prayer that you could pour out on me is very much needed. Please, please don't stop praying until I have completed my mission successfully. 

In Managua, we will be spending our time in an orphanage as well as in a hospital with children who suffer from Leukemia. I cannot imagine the work God will be doing in all of our lives in these situations. The famous question I've been asked repeatedly is "how will you cope with seeing children in these circumstances?" The answer is this; I have no idea. I know my heart will be broken, and as of right now I have no idea how I will keep it together and what I could possibly have to offer these children. What I do know, is that I serve an all knowing, awesome, loving, powerful, restoring, miraculous God and HE KNOWS how he is going to use me. That alone brings my soul to peace.  

All I have to do is show up with an open heart
