Sunshiney days comin my way

Man, it's crazy to think that another week has passed and we
are finally in the month of March! Time fllllyysss!
Today a few different things stick out in my mind...
-only a month left of internship
-only a month till TESOL
-only a month till the dts leaves for outreach
-spring is almost here
-less than a month till Jacob's dts starts
ohhhh boy...so much on my mind! I really want to take hold
of what God has for me this month, whatever that may be...
Oh and by the way..
URGENT PRAYER REQUEST: My best friend and roomie Jamie has been really sick
sense she got back from Sudan. Everything from a kidney infection, fevers, vomiting,
an ovarian cyst and 2 cysts in her uterus have plagued her with pain this past week.
She's had to go to the ER a few times now with fevers ranging up to 104 degrees. She is seeing a specialist this week as the doctors seem to have discovered she has a disease they can't pinpoint. She could REALLY use your prayers and encourgements!!!

Now last week was busy, but a lot of fun. We hosted an injustice themed
conference here at the base called "Engage". We had lots of other YWAMers
come from other bases, including two other dts'. We put on our Experiencing
Injustice program, and the Night of Missions program. Both went really well and the
students has an incredible response! Tons of them realized that God is calling them to missions and to the unreached and I had the awesome privilege of getting to talk to quite a few of them and pray over them! It was an amazingly spirit filled night.
It was sooo refreshing to have the eyes of my heart redirected off of myself and onto God's. It is so easy to get wrapped up in the everyday stuff we all deal with, with the unknown, and with everything going on in our own little bubbles. But God once again opened my eyes to the reality of His biggness, and to the reality of what it means to live a life worthy of the calling of Christ. It's NOT about me. It's all about Him. Oh! that I would grab hold of this truth everyday of my life!!! If we all did...what a wonderful world this would be...
