Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Savior
These lyrics have been ringing in my head for the past couple weeks, they have become my prayer. I'm starting to get nervous about going to the Ivory Coast. My whole life I've said that I wanted to go far away, wherever God calls me, but that's a scary thing when it's right in front of you and you're taking steps into the dark.
Thank you thank you thank you to those of you who have supported me financially! I want to personally give you a all hug right now, I simply can't say thank you enough. You rock.
To my prayer warriors, you also rock! There's no way I could do this without you. A week from today 50% of my funding is due, I'm not there yet. This has been a challenge for me, I've always hated making money an issue, but it's the way our world works. I'm totally trusting that God will provide, but I believe he provides through his people. So please pray that he will raise up more people to help pave the way to Africa.
Today I went to the Washington County Health Department and got the immunizations needed to go to the Ivory Coast and to return home, so that's exciting and painful stuff! I had a nice little chat with the nurse there about where and why I'm travelling, it was cool to share with her the work that CMFI is doing around the world. That's all for now!
PS here's a link to the song I quoted in the beginning

Yes, God will make a way. I remember my first trip overseas was with Team Expansion to Hong Kong and China the summer after the big massacre of college students and young people had occurred. It was both scary and exciting since our team was staying on a college campus. Somehow God always makes a way.
