Letting God lead



As many know Will and I have taken this summer to explore different church's and different ministry's in the church. This has been such a great experience and tiring at the same time. We have felt God calling us to something but just don't know what. It was been hard to sit back and say God I will go where you want me to go!
Over the last week, I have been so anxious and ready to get back on the mission field. Expectantly back in Mali! I have no clue when I will go back or where I could go next! It has really been on my heart, thinking about everyone back there and just how life was like out on the field. I wouldn't say life was easier, but it was just know that prescient of God is always there. Not that it he isn't in the US. In the US our ever day life takes over so much and out on the field all that is gone!
Also just thinking what it would be like for Will to be there and for us to experience that together.
No matter how much I love working with Special needs kids here my heart has always been for mission ever  since my first mission trip in 8th grade!

My prayer lately has been....
 "God open my eyes to what you want me to see and move my feet where you want me to go!"

Good Bye Summer Hello School year



Transitioning into this school year has been one of the hardest thing. I have never had a problem with change. Yes I get a little over whelmed at first but nothing bad. This year came at me full force! Starting out Monday I went into this year excited! I have the job of my dreams, working with special needs kids! Not only working with them but showing them the love of Christ and watching them grow during the year. Sure enough by Tuesday, I was done! It only took a day for school to completely take over me and so much I didn't want to go to class come Wednesday. I have never felt this way before, but feeling as if I am going to fail ever class because I don't learn like the average student just got to me! I am so thankful to have Will in  my life, over the week he has held me countless times while I just cry and has surprised me with treat and what not.
I do have to say Sunday was great for, being at church and just worshiping and at house church. it seemed that those two times have been the only time I haven't just felt like giving up on the whole thing.
