WOW! I cannot believe that I will be leaving in a little over two weeks. A lot can happen in that amount of time, we should choose to take our moments and thoughts captive, to appreciate them for what they're worth, and to be thankful for the time that goes by.
Needless to say, I am quite overwhelmed. There is a lot to be done by the time I leave including finishing the last week of classes, finals, closing (I am an RA and have various end of the year responsibilities), and somehow spend some precious time with friends and family. I was writing a friend on Saturday explaining some of the things I was going through and this emotion just came over me from out of no where. I felt inadequate, unworthy of such an opportunity, and like a failure. But the Lord whispered to me and reminded me that He is not those things, and His power is made PERFECT in my WEAKNESS!!! (2 Corinthians 12:9-look it up you may find freedom in the words).
Well, I started this blog as a way to keep you updated on my trip to Uganda this summer. I hope you all are well, and if you are reading this and are very confused as to what trip I am talking about please consider reading my support letter @ http://myemail.constantcontact.com/Back-to-Uganda--again----.html?soid=1104954455419&aid=F0LIAdxAzbY
And, if you feel so led to donate towards my trip (I still need about $1,500) I would GREATLY appreciate it. You can donate @ https://joyofachild.webconnex.com/JenUgandaMission and every little bit counts!
Blessings,
Jen <3
I hate it when I make new friends and then they leave before I ever know them. But I am happy for you non-the-less. Two weeks is a very short amount of time...I will be praying for you. Hopefully, I'll see you soon
ReplyDeleteI will be back July 10th :)
ReplyDeleteJen. I'll read every word of this blog :) so write well, often, and in length.
ReplyDeleteGood to see and hear your heart Jennifer. Gives me a better picture of how to pray for you. Also, remember to ask family, friends, etc. for help. Don't take it all on yourself.
