(I will be blogging my journal entries from my trip to Uganda. It will take a while to get them all to you... so bear with me. They are the real me... my real emotions. Sometimes they are not too positive... they show my struggles and concerns. They most definitely show my weaknesses. Enjoy... )

   The day has finally arrived ... and off I go. As I sit on plane number one out of three, I feel like it was just yesterday I felt God calling me to Uganda. Sometimes God speaks quietly but in many situations, including this one... He speaks loud and clear. 


I know that this is my calling and am praying His will be done the next three weeks. 


Honestly, worldly troubles have discouraged me the last few weeks... and completely honest... I did not want to board this plane. I am Praying that God strengthen me and prepare my heart to do his work.

Looking down from the plane window... everything looks so small. 


All these small pieces working together to form one very big, and very beautiful picture. 


Every tree, ever lake, every road, and building all carefully placed ... all working together. 


Though its hard (and impossible) to known... I imagine this is kind of how our creator feels when He looks down at us. 


From His eyes our problems seem so small. Our fears seem so small. Our worries seem so small.


From His eyes He sees His beautifully made creation that was carefully designed and perfectly placed to work together for His good. 


My problems seem big... but my God is bigger. Resting in the sweet truth that He works all things together for His good.
