Here We Go!

God has done so much in the past few weeks. I am amazed at his provision.

1. I am now leaving on October 21. I couldn't leave on October 1 like I wanted to because Orlando and Ligia will be in Orlando, FL until the 18th. This actually works out well because I will probably be able to meet with them in Orlando before I actually go to Costa Rica.

2. Financially I am almost there. I still need about $2000. I am in awe of how quickly God provided this money. It's really exciting because I was worried that this would be a reason that I wouldn't be able to go when I wanted to.

3. Housing!!! I have multiple places to live. I am going to have a "rich transcultural experience" as Orlando puts it. I will be living with many different families over the course of the 7 month. Each family will have different customs, be from a different social status, background, and live in different conditions. I'm really excited about living with multiple families and experiencing life from these many points of view!

4. Time to rest! I am really thankful for this time to rest. I thought it would only be for a couple of weeks and it is now for a couple of months. At first I was completely restless and just wanted to be there. But through conversations with multiple people I have discovered that this time is totally a gift from God. I have time to relax and prepare without having to get really stressed and being crunched for time. Also, it's been nice to have time to read and just be. God is good and teaching me that I don't constantly have to have something to do.
