I’m leaving my home and family in 9 days to go on this powerful 11 month journey. I have a brand new hiking backpack, sleeping bag, sleeping mat and tent. I have identified all the clothes I need to take. I have my plane ticket and someone to pick me up from the airport. But I have no idea what to expect! This is completely new territory for me.
I still haven’t decided whether having no expectations is comforting or terrifying because God’s Peace is completely covering this trip in my mind. I am more terrified of the domestic flight to training camp, that I am going to get on by myself, than the entire trip and God’s Peace is covering that too.
As much as God’s undeniable, unexplainable Peace covers everything about this incredible journey, I am still human and scared of new experiences, even when I know they will be amazing!
I want to Thank God for His Power to overcome my human weakness and His Strength to follow His Will to go on this incredible 11 month mission for His Kingdom.
