Well, the fear is finally gone, and all that's left is excitement!!! Haha I'm so very excited! Everything is finally coming together, and I can hardly believe it! In four weeks and a day I'll be boarding a flight that will take me to Kona, Hawaii, the place I claim as home, for that is where my heart is. I feel this constant ache and longing to be there. I see so many things of this summer that have all lead up to my time there. The persistent loneliness that's been haunting me... Only to realize that when I get there I will be surrounded by people, probably 24/7. The need, craving, and longing to be doing something MORE, something extraordinary, something beyond the mundane. Even the servants heart I find myself with this week... it all leads up to my trip! Our God is incredible! And He works in some of the most amazing ways, using people that don't even know that He is talking through them.
I've started a packing list, and actually have a packing pile started :) I am a little concerned about how to try to fit everything I need into one suitcase though... But I guess I'll figure it out, maybe I'll watch some YouTube videos on packing or something haha.
Hmmm... what else? Oh! I only need about $1000 to cover for my trip... not even $1000, closer to $700! Well, and I have to figure out airfare... which I haven't gotten around to because the first time I tried to find a flight I realized how little I know about booking a flight.... Oops... But I hope to get help soon! And get that settled!
