Beauty for Ashes

On my way to the airport now and I just really can't believe this is happening. It's been almost a year since I was in Murang'a yet this desire to be there and serve the people has not faded. I cannot wait to see what God has in store. From experience I know there is really no way to prepare yourself to have your heart broken over and over again for the things you see and experience. But I'm ready to be back in that state of complete dependence on the Lord. I'm ready to be vulnerable again and open to whatever situation God may put me in, no matter how uncomfortable it may make me. I say that I'm ready, though, with some fear and hesitation. I guess I really mean that I know that's the state I NEED to live my life. And I feel so blessed to have this opportunity to be used for God in Kenya. I know I could never deserve this and I'm just so grateful. It's overwhelming. Please keep me in your prayers! And my family as well. I'll post again later this week :)
