I haven't updated this thing-er-mer-bob yet. I'm sorry to all the readers.
I got here two weeks ago. I love my host family. They are super awesome. I'm staying on a farm. They have two horses! and some cows. I'm staying with two other girls: Madeleine (keys for Serbia) and Chelsea (vocals for Guatemala). I'm having a super blast. I couldn't be having more fun. I couldn't be loving it more.
Tonight was the final night. We had our commissioning service tonight. It was really really good. When I was singing the song "You're Beautiful" by Phil Wickham, I really realized that we were all totally unified. We were all just crying out to God and praising and worshipping him together. It was so cool. We had communion together and our leaders washed our feet. It was just so great. I was singing a Hillsong song...I forget what it's called...and I just had to stop singing because I was smiling too wide. I just couldn't even sing I was so happy. This is what we were made for. We were made to worship God with our whole lives. There is joy in that. Really. Joy. I love how much joy I get when I'm close to my Father. It's the greatest thing anyone could ever ask for. The love from my Savior, and the joy that comes from that.
CTI has been amazing so far. Thanks to all of you who look forward to reading this blog even though I totally didn't update it at all. I've been really really really busy...we had training every day from 8 in the morning till 8:30 at night...so time was kinda limited. I really appreciate all your prayers though.
Tomorrow I leave for Guatemala. My plane takes off at 2:55 pm. So pray that that goes well. I'm really excited to see what God has planned.
If I've learned anything so far, it's that it's not about me. It's about Him. That's probably one of the most important things anyone could ever learn.
