I started this blog last November to write about my trip to Kenya, which as many of you know was postponed because my mom was in the hospital. (i'll update on her later on) In 2 days from now i will FINALLY be on a plane to Kenya. It's still sinking in that this is actually happening. I have all my stuff together, im packing it all up this afternoon and Thursday morning, I'll be on my way. I look back to November and being very bitter and angry that I could not go to Kenya, but as the Lord has taught me over these past few months, HIS timing is much better than mine and He has a specific reason for me to be on this trip and not the trip that took place in November. I do not have words for how excited I am. I am praying for God to reveal His plan for my life while I'm there. I currently feel called to do medical missions in Africa, but I am praying for God to confirm His plans for my life. We have two teams on the trip, one team will be working in the schools with the children and the other team will be digging a trench from one school to the other that allows water to flow from the schools. Please keep all of us in your prayers for safe travel and life change. Also, be praying for the life of the Kenyans. There will be many opportunities for these people to hear the Gospel. Please pray for life change in the Kenyans and that we will leave an impact on their life.
I am not taking my computer to Kenya, but i will be writing about my experience once i get back.
Now, onto my mom. I never thought I would look at her and Mark and be happy with the situation my family is living in, but it's getting there. My family is starting to embrace Mark and love Mark, because thats what the Lord has commanded us to do to others. My mom's health is very good. She looks good and relationships are definitely being repaired. It has been a very long journey to get to this point and a very rough journey, but totally worth the outcome. Continue to be praying for them, things are not perfect, nor will they ever be, but they are heading in that direction.
Thanks to everyone for the prayer and support my family has been shown through everything and thank you for the many prayers I have received in regards to my trip. I cannot wait to come back with many stories to share!
