Reassurance

I got a Facebook message from my friend Emilie, we met in England while I was there, yesterday. She sent me this verse:


"He will not let your foot slip - he who watches over you will not slumber." Psalm 121:3


She told me felt like this verse was fitting because of the emotions I must be going through with such a big step, but that she wanted me to know God is always there. My heart melted and it was just nice for her to send me this because it was exactly what I needed. It's becoming more and more real what I am doing and how scary.exciting it is!

Another awesome thing was I e-mailed the old youth leader at the church I grew up in to ask if she had anything she would be willing to donate (bibles, etc.) and she said yes come on by! So I stopped by during lunch today and got lots of great stuff! Encouraging and mind blowing really to think that a small church in Texas will make a difference in England!

18 DAYS!

My life is crazy right now because: yes, I move to England in 18 DAYS!

I finally got my visa after a war with the UPS people and a trip to Conroe. After that I was able to book my flights! I fly out August 13 and after a 13 hour plane ride and a 3 hour train ride I will arrive in Nunthorpe August 14. I've never flown by myself in the states much less across the country so I am kind of nervous, but I think my excitement surpasses it. It is so crazy to think in less than three weeks I will be living there with only a week and a half trip home in October for Becca's wedding. My mom thinks I will be crying in a couple months to come back home, but I told her even if I am I won't tell her :) I'm sure I will get homesick, but I have faith that Nunthorpe is where God wants me to be and I am so eager to see what he has in store for me!
