two short months.

it's about time for another post about Haiti...ready?!
well, today i got together with kalya from school!!
we met half way between our houses and got to chat.
she was able to share a ton about amazing stories and miracles that she experiences in Haiti, and while i was beyond excited to go before, i am even more excited to go now.
i am still just praying that i mesh really well with someone on the team.

and while we're talking about Haiti, you'll never believe this.
i am fully funded!!  take a minute to let that sink in.
yes, it is true.  i almost can't believe it!
my amazing grandparents made an incredibly generous donation and voila!  trip paid for.
God can take all the glory and honor for that amazing provision {which takes a huge amount of weight off my shoulders!}

i've honestly been having some doubts about the trip.
not that i doubt it, per se, i totally know it's satan.
but it's just scary to think about at times.
i'll be going with all these people i don't know (who all already know each other), to a foreign country, to be put out of my element to share about Jesus and use my nursing skills.
see?  that's kinda scary.
but sounds a lot like peru, huh?!  
i would say it does.  and i only know how life changing that event was.
and i was wicked nervous before that trip, too, so i'm hoping this is a normal part of the process.

and with all this 'wondering if i made the right decision to leave the country' thinking, the fact that i am fully funded is 128% reassuring that i'm on the right track.
God is faithful, and so good. 
and will never leave us high and dry when He has told us to go.
He's told me to go....so i'll go.  
and He will prove He is bigger than any mountain i will face in the process.
love that about Him.  He's the best father in the world!

pray that i can still be reminded why i am going.
it's not about putting ann first, but Christ first.
i strive to do that on my trip, but more importantly in my life .
and pray that the affirmations keep coming that i'm doing the right thing.
and pray that once again, He is preparing me Spiritually, physically, and mentally.
it's gonna be hott there. and buggy. so staying complain free should be a priority!

{in the parking lot....classy, i know}

{look at that tiny girl!  love her!}

Haiti, in 2 short months, i'll be able to share some of these amazing stories that Kayla did.  it will be here before i know it.  and i can't freaking wait!
God will move big ways...i'm ready to see how!
