Ready Or Not Here I Come..

Its been a couple of weeks since I've blogged I know its terrible. Let me tell you of everything that's going on. We're making all the plans for our summer intern program which is going to be amazing! I am so incredibly excited about this summer. I know that God is going to do great things because I have high expectations! Also we are finalizing out plans for Mallory and I to go to the Philippines for the month of April.  
When I first learned I was getting this opportunity I was so excited, I wanted April to be here so I could go. Well as weeks passed and the time draws closer I was getting less excited and more nervous. the nerves very quickly grew into fear. It was now to the point where I was almost terrified about going. Well this week as I was doing my assigned reading out of "How To Be Your Best When You Feel Your Worst" by Casey Treat.  The chapters we were reading were about fear. Ha! imagine that. He talked about how fear and the limitations that we have well that we think we have we really don't have at all. If we're allowing our fears to hold us back we will never live that life God has intended for us to live. Those chapters did wonders for me. A lot of it was things I already knew, but its good to be reminded especially when your having thoughts of doubt.
So now the fear is gone and I can take on the world. I'm ready for anything because "for with God all things are possible."  I have no right to question God and argue with Him about the things He has called me to do, this is where I step back and let Him take control, because if I'm controlling it all I'm bound to mess something up. :)
