See ya later, America!

Last night in New York! It's been a great weekend catching up with old friends and exploring the city. Tromped around thrift stores on the lower east side, had a panic attack in the Toys R Us in Times Square and caught a glimpse of lady liberty. Nothing better.

I love how there is ALWAYS something going on here! Springfield,Missouri needs to step up it's game!

Now it's time to enjoy the rest of the night and get ready for the last leg of this journey to Mulhouse. Just an 8 hour flight to Zurich then a 2 hour car ride to France.
Je suis prĂȘt!

"Just trust me, ok?"

Alright, I'll admit it. I'm nervous. And as the days go by my mind is coming up with more and more things to get anxious about. "What if this isn't Your will for me? What if this isn't what I'm supposed to do?" whatifwhatifwhatif.

Today, as my mind was thinking of every possible scenario of things that could go wrong I felt like I heard Him say, "Just trust me, ok??(no need for formalities) I have this under control and I'm not going to lead you somewhere with no purpose". It finally hit me that I need to chill out and rest in His peace. He opened up these doors for a reason and isn't going to send me away for nothing, I'm exactly where I should be doing exactly what I should be doing.

You said, "Go". So, I'm going.

Just the beginning

Made it to Chicago from St.Louis today! I was dreading the nine hour wait for my second train to New York but it's been super nice to walk around and explore the city a bit!

The trip has been eventful so far despite having started only a day ago, I've had the chance to talk with some amazing people and have been blown away at their kindness.

Only a few more days in the U.S. then it's off to Mulhouse to see what God has to show me there!
