Off I went! After a great breakfast at Cracker Barrel with the Ellinwoods and Murrays, the departure began. Me and Kelsey are expert packers and some how managed to pack four suite cases, all meeting the weight limit exactly. We previously discussed how we would transport the resources we had collected to bring and decided on just sucking it up and pay for extra luggage. At bag check-in we were greatly blessed and the attendant decided to charge us.....nothing. Yes...this really happened...I still can't believe it.
I'll openly admit that I cried when telling my previous family goodbye. Christmas without them will not be easy.
Out flight to New York was fast and painless. When arriving we took our time moseying around and enjoying our last chance of American food. We then decided to walk to our terminal (early) and when arriving found out the gate had changed to the opposite side of the airport. When I say opposite I mean as far to one end as you can go and as far to the other side as you can possibly go. Soo.... me and Kelsey worked off our dinner from a good run and enjoyed a few laughs.
Now I am on a plane to Belgium being entertained by Tim Tebow book "Through My Eyes" (Im gonna marry that boy one day).
So many people have encouraged me with kind words tonight, and its a wonderful feeling knowing I am prayed for. My favorite was a simple comment from a dear friends of mine...she said, "be bold." Romans 1:16 says,
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God fore salvation to everyone who believes..."
I'm really excited to be BOLD!!!
