Preparing For Greece





As most of you know, I will be jetting off to Greece in 18 DAYS! I can't believe its so soon, it has really creeped up on me. 

I have had many different emotions about going on this adventure this summer, which include; excitement, nervousness, fear, joy, and unbelief. I am so blessed to be given this opportunity to travel across the world and study photography in one of the most beautiful places! I continue to hear how wonderful Greece is and I cannot wait to experience it myself. 
But as I said before, one of the emotions I am feeling is nervousness. This will be my first summer not doing something with the Young Life organization. I am leaving the comfort of what seems to be my second home and going to an unfamiliar place. I have been praying that the Lord will give me strength and courage to be a women of God in a place that I am not guaranteed to be surrounded by Believers. This will certainly be a trail for me because I am so comfortable with being constantly surrounded by a great community of Godly people, but it is a experience that I know I will grow greatly from in many ways. "For the word of the LORD is right and true; He is faithful in all he does." Psalm 33:4 So with this said, I ask for your prayers as I prepare my heart and mind to go on this adventure that the Lord has prepared for me! 

With Love,
from Me to You
