TODAY is the DAY!

I have been looking forward to this day for quite some time, and now it has arrived!! As I type this, I sit in a restaurant in the Detroit Airport. I am literally IN ROUTE to Cape Town. At times the reality that this journey is underway seems surreal. Yet at other times, the reality hits me like a brick. I do not know exactly what is ahead, but I do know that I desire to step boldly through the door that is before me. I desire to have faith that I am going where I need to be. While I desire to fully trust God to use this time to continue to mold me to be more and more like Christ. The journey is here, and I cannot wait to share my journey with you.

Please pray for my next two flights because flying is not something I love nor enjoy. Pray for my heart and that it continues to be open to what is ahead. Pray for my family as we are all realizing how far away Cape Town really is from Jefferson City. Pray that though I may be a bit scared and sad that I do not allow those feelings to keep me from soaking up this experience. Pray for the people whom I come in contact with that I somehow in some way may be the vessel God uses to make their life more whole and full of love and peace.
