Tuesday, July 21

I slept through my alarm this morning, so I didn’t wake up til Larry knocked on my door at 5:20. I got dressed really quickly and zipped up my suit case. Larry drove me to the air port and Roger came with and walked me inside. It was hard to say goodbye. I fly from Mo Bay at 6:30 to Miami, 6 hour lay over, then from Miami to St. Louis, a small layover, and then I finally fly to Minneapolis, getting in at 10:30. Flying out this morning was hard. I felt very sad. To not know how long it would be before I could touch my feet to the island again. I prayed as we were taking off though and I watched the island grow smaller. It was so beautiful from up in the air. The clouds were heavenly and the sun had just come up. It was magical. I still feel the Lord calling me toward missions. As I was listening to him this morning he told me once again that I am meant for great things, but I’ll need to sacrifice some things. I still don’t know what the future holds, but I think that’s the point. I need to stop planning so much and trust more.
