Today is the day.
We head to the airport in just 7 hours and will be on our way to Kenya. I have waited for this moment since August. I knew I would be returning to Kenya. While I didn't know it what capacity it would be in, I was confident nonetheless. And I am so full of joy that it is with Choose to Invest and the Journey 2013 interns.
This past week at Camp Highland I got to watch the Lord move in so many ways. He is actively setting this group free from things that have held them captive for years. It is a beautiful sight and I am full of anticipation for what He is going to do.
They have started to share their stories with each other and it is humbling and incredible to see how the Lord has knit this team together so intentionally. I cannot wait to walk along side of them as they continue to go deeper with God and with each other over the next 9 weeks.
As I look back to where I was a year ago at this time, all I can see is God's faithfulness. The past two years have been nothing but walking through brokenness. When I arrived in Atlanta for J2013, I felt nothing but peace. I have already wrestled through what it looks like to not be broken. I've learned that I don't have to be broken for God to teach me things. I've learned it's ok to be confident in His calling. I've learned that you can become just as numb to brokenness as you can to seasons of peace.
I am happy to just be with Him; to just walk with Him knowing that He is leading me and will let me know which direction to head in. I'm excited to walk the streets of Kenya once again. I'm filled with joy to be with these beautiful people. And I'm fully expectant of all that He has planned for this team.
Whatever comes our way, to God be the glory. Forever and ever. Amen.
