28 Day til Departure!!!!

Well I thought that I would give an update on how everything is going.

1st) I have been amazed how the Father has provided for me!  There have been people giving right and left, and it has been awesome!  I am so excited to see how all of this giving gets used, because I know it has to be for great things.

2nd) I have been a little stressed about a few things lately.  The first is my visa.  I have been waiting on a letter from the school to arrive, so that I can apply.  Well the letter arrived today...but it was in a package that had to be signed for so of course no one was home so I have to get it tomorrow.  The second stress has been one of my flights.  I am flying from OKC to Dallas to London then from London to Bangalore then on from there.  The stress is that change of planes in London.  I have 1 hr 45 min, which seemed like enough time...but according to London Heathrow's website it takes 90 mins to make the transfer I have to make.  That is just such a close call.  Then to make matters worse the last few times I have looked up the flight from Dallas to London it has been delayed by over a hour.

I know that I need to let Father take care of things, but it is just so easy to stress about it.  I have never missed a flight before, so I really do not know what all I should or shouldn't do if I do miss a flight.

3rd) I am really getting excited!!!!  I feel like India is where I am going to live my whole life working for Father, so this trip is like a dream come true.  I do not know what all the almighty has in store for me, but I know that he will work in mighty ways!  I hope that all of you also have dream you feel the Father has given you that you can strive for.

Well thank you for letting me rant for a minute.  Please feel free to ask questions, or just to give advise if you have any.  I know that I do not know everything, and would love the knowledge of your experience.

Waiting

Why is it so hard to wait sometimes?  Sometimes I feel like I spend my life waiting for things. Today is not different.  I am super excited that the people I met here at training are leaving to their service, but I am still here.  I have loved every minute of the training and would not give it back for anything.  This week I have been so encouraged in the Father's plans for my life.  I have seen others much stronger then me talk of how the holy one has taken and changed their lives.  I can not wait to see what the all mighty has for me in the future.  I know that if I wait on him that he will give me much more then if I push him to give to me now now now.  I am just so encouraged by the others who have committed themselves to the ever loving Father.  I am so ready to serve him at any cost to myself.  I hope that I never go back to anything I was.  I can not wait for the day that I am not waiting to see my Father's face and know that I was a good and faithful servant.  I hope that I will always be a strong tower not in my own strength, but in the strength of the great and mighty one!  So you maybe saying to yourself this all started with waiting...well that is because we must always wait on our father to lead us in his time, which normally means wait!

Day Three of Training!

Another day done!  The way the Father leads when you are with other like minded people is so powerful. I can not believe that this week is almost over.  I will be so sad when I get home, and not get to really see these people every day.  Today we talked more of the nuts and bolts of working.  The medical, conflict resolution, and etc...  I have gotten the great opportunity to be given advise from many many many wonderful workers of the king.  They have given words of encouragement, and words of advice to help me further my own work!  This company has impressed me so so much.  They are not worried if I ever come back and work with them, but that I do what my purpose is.  They have such a strong desire to see the holy one emphasized.  I really love that they are just there to support me and the fathers work for me.  I am hoping that the father will being to even more show what the mighty one has for me.

Day Two of Training

All I can say is WOW!!!!  I love love love this training!  Today was nothing but seminars on how to better serve and how to better be with the Father.  I feel like I am on mind overload. I think the best way I heard it described today was it is like trying to drink from a fire hose.  The power of the Father is so strong in this place.  I can not wait for tomorrow.  I have loved that no one here has really pushed or pulled toward just doing one thing, but that it has been all about what the Father wants.  I was I had all day just to type all the things I learned, but I don't.  Just ask me later and I will fill you(most likely with more info then you want)

PS: Please be talking to the Father for me...I have been very sore all day!!! 

First day of training!!!

LET THE TRAINING BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok i know that it may seem a little dramatic to start a blog like that, but what else would you expect from me?  Today I started training for India.  It was amazing!!!! We spent the whole time today talking about how the Father has worked in our lives to get us to this point.  I have already met some amazing people with all amazing stories.  I can not wait to hear more and more.  I also got to meet another girl going to India(not with me). It was kinda funny we had barely talked 5 minutes and it was like we had always been friend.  I can not wait to see what all is in store for this week, but all I know is that the Lord is going to great things. 

Plans have changed.

For those that do not know yet...(drum roll please)...I will be now staying in India for a full year.  I will helping at the school that whole time.  The only time I will not be at the school is the Christmas holiday, and then I will hopefully going up to Northern India to do some work with some other fellow workers.  I can not wait to have have all my needs provided for by the one above, and I can not wait to serve in His name.

Preparing

Well this will be my first blog on this site...I do not have much to say except that I am truly excited to see what comes in the next few month.  Also to see how doors will open for me, and I will be provided for.

Well on to the update.  For those that do not know I have been accepted to go work at the school for 6 months.  I will most likely be leave late July, early August.  I will be back by like December 20th.  I am so ready to go.  I have been looking for clothing, shoes, and anything else that Google will let me look up.  Well I really think I need to go to bed.  I hope you all have a great night!!!
