Today I am reminded of God’s faithfulness. I knew going into this trip that it was an expensive mission trip to be a part of. All throughout the planning process, I was constantly reminded by others in the group that God will provide. Although I believed this to be true, I was beginning to stress out on how this was going to happen. Today was one of those mornings that I sat at my kitchen table afraid to begin paying the bills because I wasn’t quite sure how I was going to make it all happen this month and still pay the balance left on the trip. Between getting all the necessary shots and medications and the overall cost of the trip, it ended up being more than I ever imagined. I wish that I could say that all along I was 100% confident that it would work out but if I am totally honest with you, this past week I was beginning to get a little worried. This evening, I received a blessing that I don’t even know how to put to words. An individual sent a check to the church that covered almost all of the remaining balance. I wish I could paint a picture of the emotions that I had when I opened that envelope. As the tears streamed down my face, I smiled and reminded myself that God is and always will be faithful.

I am humbled and so thankful for all of you who have supported me not only financially but more importantly through prayer. You all are an amazing blessing.
