This is a couple of days behind, but... I HAVE ALL MY MONEY for the trip!! Yeah, GOD! As of last Tuesday, I still needed $1,000... but a divine meeting, a couple of super amazing friends, and an incredibly faithful God provided everything that I needed :) HE is such a faithful provider! And thanks for all your prayers and support... you are a blessing!
I've been reading in Isaiah 55:
"Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare. Give ear and come to me; hear me, that your soul may live."
I've been catching myself lately spending energy, emotions, and thoughts on things that don't matter - that aren't eternal. Isaiah 55 is a scripture that I have read numerous times, but God is reminding me of its truth. My prayer for this summer is that I will truly 'eat what is good' - choose to only invest in the best, eternal, and God-driven. And the promise? My soul will know life! Like most things that are worth it, it certainly won't be easy... but incredible!
I leave in the morning!! I'm flying through Newark and Amsterdam before landing in Nairobi Friday evening Nairobi time, Friday morning stateside time. So that's like... 36 HOURS!!! :D
Prayers for this time:
- Safe travel
- Preparation for my heart, mind, soul, and body
- Focus and vision (to pursue 'what is good'!)
- God's heart for the people I'll encounter (even during travel...)
- And (of course) as you are lead!
Blessings, friends!! Love you all :)
