Im all in.

This week has been so crazy. Im sorry for not getting a blog posted earlier but I have been so busy! With Thanksgiving and Christmas and preparing to come to Kona, Ive had my hands full. The Lord is revealing so many things to me. In this time of just getting here, meeting so many new people, living in a new place.... its all amazing. But the Lord is really just telling me to be with Him. To stop worrying about meeting new friends and getting to know everyone, but to just stop and spend time with Him. His presence here amazes me! Truly He is showing me that in this 6 months, its gonna be awesome and fun but the most important part about this time is spending time with God. Just soaking up His presence. Its so easy for me to sit at dinner and complain about the food, or complain about sharing 1 bathroom with 7 girls, but... That is what I should be thanking Him for! Thanking Him for giving me this opportunity, thanking Him because He has this under control. Thanking Him for loving me when I have sinned. Its a privilege to be here. To be in community. Just being here, God has transformed my thoughts. I JUST WANT MORE OF HIM. I long for more and more. There is a 24 hour prayer room here which has been such a blessing. Ive only been here 2 days and it feels like an entire week. Probably because I'm trying to adjust to the time change but wow, Ive had some long days. Im just so thankful to be here. I keep worrying about when to do this and that and Abba is just like, "Daughter, Ive got this...and I love you, come spend time with me." SO GOOD! 

"God, you did everything you promised, 

and I'm thanking you with all my heart,

You pulled me from the brink of death, 

my feet from the cliff-edge of doom. 

Now I stroll at leisure with God

in the sunlit fields of life."

I fall more and more in love with the Lord everyday.
