the call.

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
    before you were born I set you apart;    I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”

“Alas, Sovereign Lord,” I said, “I do not know how to speak; I am too young.”

But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the Lord.

Then the Lord reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, 

“I have put my words in your mouth. See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.”

Trust.

You will keep in perfect peace

those whose minds are steadfast,

because they trust in you. 

Isaiah 26:3

Ok, so here's the plan.

So many people- acquaintances, relatives, friends, co-workers, have asked me - what I'll be doing in the fall. And I suppose the generally accepted answer would be- college. If you know me, you know how painfully indecisive I am. But God so graciously led me to this - it just seemed like the right thing.
So I've been accepted to the ywam photography discipleship training school in Orlando Florida! I'm so excited to start this part of my journey and see how God is going to move and work, stretch and use me, and use my passion for photography.
Some details:
I'll be spending 3 months in Orlando for the training. I'll have classes and be learning about evangelism and photojournalism, and doing weekly photo assignments, as well as other things.
For the outreach, I'll be spending 2 months in either Turkey, India, China/Thailand, Southern Africa or the Dominican Republic. The photography dts students will be praying about where we are called to go and choose that way.

I do still have a lot to do until September 24. Such as, but not limited to: book flights, conquer fear of being alone in airport, purchase lenses, fundraise/fun-raise :) But I know God will provide and prepare me.
