Forever changed. Forever free. Forever thankful.
Tomorrow is June 1, 2012. The day that I am supposed to be leaving for my mission trip to Swaziland. If you had talked to me a week ago, I would have told you that I had officially raised all my funds and was beginning to pack. All my skirts were bought, all my meds were prescribed, and all my shots were given to me. The plane tickets were bought. The backpack was puchased. The mosquito nets were nestled in the bottom of my duffle bag. I was ready to embark on this journey to Swaziland. Then God intervened. Without going into a lot of detail, God redirected my path for this summer. I will no longer be going to Africa. This decision was not made lightly. Discernment, prayer and hours in God's word led me to make this decision. This was one of the hardest decisions of my life. So, instead of boarding a plane to Swaziland tomorrow... I will be waking up in my bedroom in Piedmont, Missouri. Not going to Swaziland isn't the only "rough" thing that has come my way over ...
