on the way...

t-6 days till i meet the people of haiti

144 hours till my eyes are opened to a new culture

8640 minutes till i pray God changes my life and opens my heart to new opportunities

so here i am ready-satan is not stopping what God is about to do in my heart and the heart of the haitians...and i believe that.

I was asked a few weeks ago what motivates me to grow in my life and faith walk-my response:
"Gods love-He has changed my heart more than i could put into words. i feel Him calling me to something bigger in my life. Gods love has impacted me and i believe all along He has loved me and now it is my turn to love Him back as best I can."

i am trying to live my life as 1 thessalonianas 5:16-18 says we should-
be joyful always; pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Jesus Christ

joyful always. HARD ...but i am trying. praying continually-its amazing what the power of prayer does and i have seen it already. giving thanks- has given me a new perspective on life and has taught me a lot about myself. it's God's WILL for me to live this way! is that not awesome in and of itself?...

i was living my life for myself 6 months ago...honestly. and though i am not proud of who i was, i am thankful for who i am now and what i have learned along the way. i am thankful that at this point in my life God has given me the opportunity to be His hands and feet in haiti. i pray He gives me the words that need to be shared with the haitians and that when i come home i will have a whole new look on life.

God is tugging on my heart-when i put my trust in Him, He moves me...to new heights.
that is all for tonight...this is my journey, this is my story, this is my life... kb
