    So many emotions are jumbled up inside me!  I am so excited about all the adventures yet I am scared.  I am letting go of the wheel yet I want to hold on.
     I am excited about all the things to come.  To see all the lives changed, to see my life changed, to meet all the people from my team, to grow spiritually, to see what God is doing, to be a part of what God is doing, etc.
     I am scared of the culture shock I will experience in each new place, the critters I will see, the food I will have to eat, being away from my family for so long, etc.
     As the trip approaches and becomes more real I am finding it both harder and easier to surrender to Christ.  There have been so many things that have made me question God but then He pulls me through and I am closer to Him than I ever was.  I think I have surrendered more within the last few months than I ever had.  My relationship with God has become more real.
     This is an amazing opportunity and I am thrilled to be a part of it!
