Ok so, I have about a month until I leave for China. For those of you who are reading and are floored by this statement..... I apologize. I am heading to China in a month. I am leaving everything I know--language, home, family, friends, 7-11 slurpees, worship freedom, dryers, driving, clean drinking water...and so much more.
It's like I am picking up at the beginning of my life when I came into the world as a blank slate but I am doing it now as a person who can talk and express herself. I am literally heading into the unknown but yet there is so much peace. Peace that surpasses all understanding of my current situation--a peace that can only come from God. He is definitely the reason for me to walk out these doors and into the next set. I am not exactly sure what He has in store for me besides getting me WAY out of my comfort zone and getting me completely by myself (besides the other teachers I will be with).
God continues to answer prayers and will continue to do so even during my 10 months abroad. I am confident in His line of work and through that confidence, I can be confident in the line of work He has me going into!
I am reading this book right now.. its listed on here so I wont go into naming the title. This book speaks volumes to my life right now. I am a small, minuscule part in a HUGE, MASSIVE God story that surrounds my entire life. My heart is so excited to be a part of the huge mission that is going on through HIS story....and I am so excited to find out what my going to China and teaching in a secular, private school has to do with that story!
Well..needless to say, its time to go to bed but before I do that. I want to say that God will give you amazing peace about everything when the exact moment happens that you are in desperate need of that peace.
