Last Thursday I was supposed to leave but I did not make it on the flight (hazards of being on stand-by). And today, Amanda took me back to the airport today and yet again I did not get on the flight. Yesterday, we all said if I don't make it on the flight today then God wants me to stay longer.
So here I am!
It has been so emotionally draining: the ups and downs of saying goodbyes and coming back! But it is so beautiful and heartwarming to see the smiles of so many people when I return. Those smiles assure me that I am doing something right here! The theme of my past few weeks has been of my personal searching. I am still trying to figure out what I am doing and what I am going to do. But what I know now is that I am here and I want to be here and that I should be here.
What has been hard is knowing that I am missing things at home. And more importantly missing people. Tomorrow, my family is going to the Braves game in a belated celebration of father's day. On July 4th, I was supposed to run the Peachtree Road Race with my mom and go to a party with our family friends. I am sad to be missing these things and the time that I would have spent with my loved ones. But God has me here. And I am oh so happy to be here!
Here in Honduras with my beautiful family that I have grown so close to! This country and this ministry have so much to offer and I am just so thankful for this opportunity and this life! On this trip I have learned so much about myself and more importantly, about God.
Thank y'all so much for all of the support!
Here are just a few pictures of my sweet friends and family here!
