i'm really doing this

To the desperate eyes and reaching hands
To the suffering and the lean
To the ones the world has cast aside
Where you want me I will be

I will go, I will go
I will go, Lord send me
To the world, To the lost
To the poor and hungry
Take everything I am
I'm clay within your hands
I will go, I will go, send me

Let me not be blind with privilege
Give me eyes to see the pain
Let the blessing You've poured out on me
Not be spent on me in vain
Let this life be used for change

I wanna live for you
Go where you lead me
I wanna follow you

Send me!


i'm 30 minutes away from leaving for the airport with so many mixed emotions. am i really doing this? i can't believe i'm doing this. am i ready? i'm not prepared. i'm excited. i'm sad. i know the Lord is going to work. i can't wait to see everything. i can't wait to see someone accept the Lord. i want to go on a safari! i want to see a kangaroo!


i'm all over the place, but the bottom line is: the Lord opened ridiculous doors for me to be able to go and i am to glorify Him in this. this is His trip. not mine. i must take myself and my feelings out of this and replace them with Him and His desires. an eternal perspective.


i love all of you! words cannot express my gratitude for your love, prayers, and support. i will try to update this as much as i can. i'll see you all in three and a half months.
