Tonight I went to the info session about the Mamelodi trip and I'm having a hard time trying to contain my excitement. I mean, the excitement has gradually been building, but I don't think I can remove this grin from my face. I am well aware that there are going to be difficulties to overcome before, during and after this trip but I am filled with a sense of hope and an undeniable joy.
This is what God has for me; I wholeheartedly believe that.
As I was getting this post together Ellery's song Perimeter of Me came on my itunes and the words are eerily appropriate:
"And I want to live with wider eyes,
There's far too much to see
To think of nothing else
But where I've been and where I'll be
I've been longing for the freedom
That is waiting silently
In the life that's just beyond the small
Perimeter of me"
So, if you're the praying type I have a few things that would be helpful for you to pray over:
*I'll be able to go for both weeks
*I'll be able to connect with my GO group in an amazing way
*the people we'll be connecting with both here and in Mamelodi
*raising financial support (more on this later, but my portion of the trip will be $4500)
*my relationship with God as I continue this journey
*my family
much joy to you,
dana
