Sooo...I sold my car! It was something I've thought about doing since this all started but for certain reasons I decided not to right away... after praying and considering all of my options I knew it was what needed to be done. I had been to Carmax for the past two months and after the first time I was like there is NO WAY I am selling my car for the price they gave me. Well, after I realized it would be almost enough for my trip, I decided to go through with it. I had them reappraise my car a 2nd time and again they gave me the low price..
This past Friday, I was on my way to carmax...a good friend of mine had prayed for me over the phone and I knew God was right there in the passenger seat next to me. This was such a scary decision for me. As most of you know, I do not like making decisions. Once I got into the parking lot of Carmax I prayed that God would give me favor and watch over me as I went through this process. I asked to speak with a manager who then forwarded me to the "appraisal guy." Long story short, they gave me an extra $1,000!!!! AMEN!!! I am so thankful we have a God who truly is our Provider, who is bigger than anything else in the world... that when the world says the economy is down, or the bank is broken... our God is Still there to take care of us. Ugh, I LOVE IT!!
The next day (this past Saturday), I bought my plane ticket! It's really happening!! The last thing I need is my VISA. I probably should've gotten this before the ticket, but for some reason I thought we had to show a purchased plane ticket.. I know, silly thinking. But, it's okay because I'm trusting God will take care of it... look what He's done so far! I love how my YWAM Leader put it, "I love the suprises God has for us and can't wait to see what else he surprises you with!" God DOES have surprises for ALL of us!!
This week my dad has been letting me borrow his car. Yesterday (Monday) I got all of my vaccinations. There's really only a few since most of them were completed when I was young. I had to get a Tetanus shot, Hepatitis A, typhoid, and an Xray (to show that I do not have TB).. the Xray was cool, I took a picture with my iPhone lol.
So now, I have a plane ticket, shots, and am just waiting on my Visa. I will be sending all of my Visa papers this Thursday. PRAY PRAY PRAY!
Thank you ALL for supporting, encouraging, donating, and praying. I can't thank you enough. Please continue to pray! ..and if you have any prayer requests don't hesitate to email or comment.
LOVE and BLESSINGS!!
