Yes, I'm aware the title may seem a bit silly. But really think about it. You have been praying so hard for something and all the while not sure what would come of it. Well, here is the answer to all of our prayers. The Lord in His wonderful grace and faithfulness has once again provided for this trip making, this little girl's dream (of going over seas to share Him with others) come true.
I am constantly reminded of His ability and my inability. I am constantly reminded that I should praise Him even though I don't "see" Him at work. And I am constantly reminded why He is God and I am not. I so grateful for all that He has done. But most importantly I am humbled by Him. (and I would not have it any other way, His way is always the best).
OH! With all the emotions I totally forgot! We are currently at $2070 and in need of $1430!
Well back to my paper (quite literally, I stopped in the middle of it to write you a quick note)
Thanks so much.
Hebrews 11 is this weeks encouragement :)

Support Update
BAAAAAA! This would be an accurate description of how I feel at the moment. Haha. No but really. I'm looking at the next 4 weeks (the number of school weeks left) and things don't seem to be slowing down any time soon. I'm won't bog you down with all the details but to say the least I feel like an adult with a number of things waiting to be done. (Side-note: I don't like to do list because they take my focus off the omnipotent God I serve). Also its slowly hitting me that in a month from now I will be in South America!!!!!!! (May 20th is the day I leave. Only 4 days after my last class. Baaaaaaaaaa!)
So you are probably wondering about support raising and how its coming. Well as of April 22, $970 meaning the amount still needed is $2,530! So many of you have graciously given and I could not be more thankful. (Confession: I have to remind myself to be thankful for what I have and not focus too much on what is still needed. However this does not diminish my appreciation for you.)
Prayer request:
Finances,
Final weeks of school,
Final exams,
Final papers,
Fresh strength and energy for when I arrive,
Safety,
no Sickness,
and a Safe run this Saturday (my dad, sister and I will be running a 1/2 marathon, its my first! :)
Thanks you so much for taking time to read this. I tried to keep it short. May God bless you and keep you.
P.S. Verses for the week:
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, perfect, pleasing will.
Romans 12:1-2
