Preparing for the trip, my prayer has been that I wouldn't let my fears and insecurities hold me back as they have so many times in the past. I want to glean all I can and grow so much stronger in my faith, but so often my fears have inhibited that, as I feel it has for many of us. Satan knows just how to use them in his attempt to destroy us. Our insecurities eat away at our faith, our relationships, and our lives as a whole. Only God can give us the strength and confidence we need to conquer them, so as I prayed, I prayed for an abundance of both :) And I will need to pray that prayer every morning as we go out to share His love.
I'm excited to see how my life will be changed there and how it will translate into my life here. I will most definitely share my experience with you, as community and relationship is crucial to our faith, and my insecurities in that area can no longer hold me back. :)
Until I get back...
