I really don't have words to tell you how this past week was. But it was amazing....and hard.. For me. God really opened my eyes to so many things butclosed them to so many more.

Last Saturday I left Columbus to go to Taccoa Falls, GA for Training Camp. Wasn't really sure what to excpect....at all. I didn't know to excpect thoughts. Thoughts of things I will miss when I'm out on the field for 9 months. Little things kept popping into my head. Little things that started to take over my mind, body, and spirit. These things kept poking at me all week...almost distracting me from the things going on. Until the middle of the week when I had to tell myself that I would be doing so much more than these little things. That God has a plan FOR ME. And right now his plan was for me to be at training camp....

Everyone thought I was quiet......well they are wrong....I was just distracted. But now I am glad that I have information that I need and that I know a little more about the trip so I can spend the next month thinking. The next month preparing my heart and mind. The next month taking care of these little things and living them out. The next month praying and relying on the Lord. 

I've never really thought about how much relying we do on Jesus. But this week showed me that He can, and will give us peace and understanding.

I can write more about experiences at Training Camp later.
