My first post!

Well, I have decided to join the blogging world. I don’t know if anyone will actually read this but I wanted to have a way to share what God is doing in my… the things am I seeing, learning, and doing. I chose this verse as the title of my blog because it is the essence of what God is teaching me in my life right now. As some of you may know, I am going to China this summer to work with orphans. Since the summer of 2008, God has placed a soft spot in my heart for the country of China, especially the orphans forgotten by most. Ever since then, I knew that God would bring me there someday but I didn’t know how or when. It has been a long process involving pain and prayer but I am finally going! God is proving himself to be completely faithful. Details that I lay awake worrying about are coming together in ways that can only be from God’s hand. So, my request is that you keep this trip and me in your prayers. Pray that God does incredible and life changing things.
