Few more days and I’ll be on a plane to Colorado.
It has certainly been a crazy ride from feeling God’s call to do summer project this summer, to actually filling out an application, to getting my to references to hurry, to finding out I got accepted to Yellowstone, then finding out a few days later that it got canceled, to finding out I got into Vail SP, to writing support letters, mailing them out, and slowly seeing the very same return envelops I mailed out come back to me. As I am writing this, only a few days from my assignment, I am filled with excitement, and nervousness.
There are so many things I want to do before I head out, such as visiting friends, getting my luggage packed, getting my computer and phone ready for the summer (yea I am a dork, I am preping my phone with offline GPS maps, and getting my laptop ready for the massive amount of pictures I will be taking in Vail). I have not started packing, and I am starting to feel the pressure of time. I am still about $1500 from my target, and I gotta make some more support calls. The past couple days allergies have been crippling me, and I think I have caught a virus or something as well, so my body is incredibly weak. Worst of all, I don’t think I’ve prepared my heart enough for the Lord to do work. With so many things going on in a small window of time, I find myself not giving much God time at all.
There is not a single doubt that God is going to rock my face off this summer! I am excited to get out there, I am excited to get to know other project students, and also the locals. I just ask for prayers that God will calm my heart, and help me manage my time, so that I can get everything I need to do done.
