I'm leeeeaaaavin' on a jet plane
I am. Seriously. On September 5th at 8:15 a.m. I will be headed off to New Orleans for a year. Talk about kind of scary.
I am 100% stoked, and ready and excited about what I know God is going to be doing in my life this year. I am also 100% scared out of my mind about being away from home and everything I know for an entire year. It is an experience that I know is going to challenge me, and help shape me into the man that I know God intends for me to be...but I sure wish I wasn't this anxious about it.
It has only been in the past few says that the nervousness has kicked in. My summer internship is coming to a close, and it has been great. I have learned some great lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. I realised though, that as this comes to a close, my Mission Year is going to commence. 4 and a half weeks. 33 days until I leave (I put a d-day counter on my phone). It is just so much more real to me now that my friends are preparing to go back to school, and I begin to think about what I'll be ding while they're doing that.
Don't get me wrong. I am way looking forward to this. I just have some jitters. Please pray for me about that. Pray for my team that I will be living with, and all the other '08-'09 participants that we will allow ourselves to step out of the way and Christ to shine through us. Pray for the MY staff as the wind down from one group and start to gear up for another group to come in. Pray for the people in the cities we will be in, that God would begin/continue to work in their hearts.
