Myanmar

Woah - where to begin?  Um...Myanmar is now my home away from home, I love it, I miss it, and I want to go back...tomorrow.  It was the best experience of my life.  Better than anything I ever could have asked for or even dreamed of having!  I leaned so much from those kids and leaders - much more than I think I could ever teach or show them.  I saw God's love each and every day, walking all around me, being given to me and everyone else so that we might learn how He wants us to love others.  I learned so much about how to love others, what true worship and service to God looks like - all from children who have nothing.  They were the happiest kids I have ever seen in my life and they were so inspiring to me.  I only wish there was some way I could express my thanks to them for all that they did for me while I was there to serve them!  I feel like I could write a book about the trip...and then some.  I am praying for the opportunity to go back one day soon - sadly I just found out the December trip is now full :(  I know God will get me there when He wants me there again.  He certainly taught me about His faithfulness and how He works out His perfect plans for our lives with this trip.  Jeremiah 29:11 has never seemed to stand out more than right now in my life.  It's still hard when things don't go how I want them to...but I would much rather God's plans prevail for my life than my plans prevail...because I know He already has them written out, has since before he started forming me in my momma, so I think that means He really really cares about and loves me and truly only wants what is best for me.  I am so thankful for being blessed with going to Myanmar.  I hope I get to go back...soon.
