One week

Today marks one week since mine and Tim's challenge started. I am beating him right now since I have blogged more than him. :) Go me!

Today has been pretty laid back I guess. I cleaned some, did some laundry, got my hair cut, and just drove around town. I went to the lake and watched the ducks for a few minutes. I haven't been there in a while, so it was nice. After that I went to my grandparents house because their church had taken up an offering for my upcoming mission trip and they had the money. God has blessed me so much in preparing for this trip. I have really seen God work in my life and the lives of my teammates in raising money. God knows exactly what we need and when we need it!

Something that I wanted to mention today is how awesome that God allows certain people to be in and used in your life. God has placed the perfect people to help me with certain things in my life. It is pretty cool how God works things out for each of us. Everyone has a different plan for their life that God holds. My plan is different from yours, just as yours is different from mine. But then things get really cool when God places the person of the opposite sex in your life that He intends for you to share your life with. Then, it is really cool how both of your plans correlate with each other. I am not in that place in my life, but I still think it is pretty awesome.

I am getting excited about finding out how God is going to use me this summer!! Options are opening up for me, so I am excited!! Something else that I don't know whether or not you know is that I am SOOOOO EXCITED about December 17th!! :)

I ask that whoever reads my blogs will pray for me as my team and I prepare for our trip! Thanks!
