Leaving for Kenya tomorrow!


I am amazed that we are leaving for Kenya tomorrow! I have had many life distractions as I've prepared for this trip. From searching for a job and then a new place to live, it has been difficult, at times, to get my heart and mind into this trip. However, as God has closed many doors in my life, He has made things fall into place for this trip. When some doubted that I would go due to the amount of support requested, God provided twice as much as I needed.


Initially I wondered what God would do while we are in Kenya. I was not prepared for all that He would do prior to leaving. Because of this trip, I have been able to share my faith with many as well as connect with complete strangers. As I attempt to pack the things that are needed, I am filled with joy and excitement as well as a little nervousness about the unknown. I wonder how I will be able to give hope to strangers in a strange land suffering from things that I do not understand. However, I feel that God has made this trip possible and have faith that He will take care of the rest.
