On my way!

Hi everyone! This will be a short update because I'm on my cellphone at the San Francisco airport, but I wanted to let everyone know I'm on my way to Maui! It's been so awesome seeing how God has provided for all of my spiritual, physical, emotional, and financial needs so far to be able to go to the DTS part of YWAM! Thank you for everyone's prayers and support! This morning was a pretty emotional goodbye for me. I'm so excited to go and start this adventure, but there are people I will miss dearly. What I've noticed though is that when something God asks of us requires sacrifice, He always makes it more than worth it. In my first layover I was having my quiet time, telling Jesus how excited I was to be doing this, but also how hard it was to leave. He whispered to me that He knows, oh He knows the pain of separation more greatly than I ever will, and His heart hurts for my tears. He says He's so proud of me, and that all I have to do is hold on and trust Him, and this will be gloriously worth it. It's my greatest joy to make sacrifices for the One who became a sacrifice for me, so six months of separation from people I love is a small price to pay for my King. (If this seems like a very healthy outlook, it's only because He quieted my heart and spoke to my soul today. Trust me I was not quite this eloquent when I was crying at the airport this morning). All that being said, I can't believe I'm on my way. I've been waiting over a year to go to YWAM, and in seeking the Lords heart on what He wants for me during this time, I realize I don't have the faintest idea of the magnitude to which He's about to work in my life. I can't wait to see this glorious unfolding. If you could all keep me in your prayers, that He would continue to heal and bind up anything in me still hurting, and prepare me for this divine adventure :) thank you guys! I should probably get off the airport floor now where my phone is plugged in and sit by my gate.... Get ready Maui, I'm coming :)
