Season of Preparation

I guess it is about time to blog something. I created this blog mainly to keep my family and friends updated on all my wonderful adventures in and around Sweden. I am not moving till August but that doesn't mean that stuff isn't going on now...


I have 27 days till my mom and my Pastor take a trip to Uppsala for a conference and to get all my housing set up. I am so excited! Its weird/awesome to think that next year I will be living there and that this is REALLY happening. Sometimes it feels like I am just creating a "what if" scenario - "What if I moved to Sweden, and what would it be like"- but no it's for real! So yes 27 days till my first visit to my future home... the count down is on!


Then next on the agenda is a Mission trip to Ecuador with my best friend Rachel. This first started out that she was going for a week or so, and then I threw out "hey what if I come" lol So what do you know... We are going and not only for a week but pushing 3 weeks, and just us! We pretty much have everything set up and ready to go.... SO READY TO GO! 


I am so amazed with God, He continues to BLOW my mind and the thing I thought I would do He takes them and completely expands them. I have learned to not plan things with my mind but trust in Him and know that He has it all under control.

• Isaiah 55:8 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts and My ways are not your ways."
• Jeremiah 29:11b "I know what I am doing I have it all planned out- plans to take care of you ,not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for."

So it is preparation time and a growing time. I'm so ready for these adventures and the things God has planned for me.
