So it is four hours before I leave for mexico. it feels like just yesterday, I was writing a blog about leaving for mexico. How exciting. Yet, then again, it doesnt feel like "Omigosh i am going to mexico!" Should I be more excited? Should I be perfectly enthralled with this? I mean, I am completely excited, but it isn't like a fake luster. I am excited to serve. And I am waiting and trusting that this weekend God will show me more of His heart and His plan for me. I mean, I am anticipating this like crazy. All that he will do.

All of the junk he will get me away from so that my heart can see Him and be undistracted. So that I can come back with a greater understanding of Him and surely of His grace, and apply that to my life. I mean, I've been having a tough week but God is giving me contentment amongst it. He is testing me. Reminding me that "My Beloved Is Mine." And making me trust in Him. I don't think I can be in a better place than that. For those of you who have my email, email me because I am going to miss you all weekend! But I will be with Rachel and Sam and Jonah. Oh yes, and pray that Sam will not kill us.
