Well, it has been a stressful week. Had no visa, lost my chance to leave on May 18th, but by God's grace, today i received my visa! Hooray! Not sure exactly when i will be flying out, but soon and very soon. I have been kind of freaking out a bit about not being on time, but, God had a reason i needed to wait a couple of days. Not sure what it is, but there is a reason. God is in control. I was talking to my sweet mom tonight. I was telling her i was a little scared about this trip and i was scared that i wouldn't do a good job and that i would fail. she told me, "Chelsea, thats a good thing, because that shows that you can't do it on your own. God has to be your strength. He will stretch you." I was so encouraged. My mom has done so many amazing things without my dad by her side. She has even been to Sierra Leone alone and she made it. My mom is the strongest woman i know. She has been through so much, if she says i can do this, i know i can. God has called me to this and i know He will get me through it. I am excited and at peace. My mom also said to me..."Chels, what is it you say at the end of your blogs... Dangerously Surrendered? Now is your chance to dangerously surrender." That popped my little bubble. She's right! This is it. I HAVE dangerously surrendered. Now i will follow through. Please be praying that God would continue to work out my travels and that within the next few days ill be getting on a plane heading to Sierra Leone!
P.S. Dangerously Surrendered. Have you?
