(I wrote this post a couple days ago.....just posting it now! Haha, has been an eventful last five days....) 


Well, here I am, at Gleanings for the Hungry in Dinuba, CA. 
MANY thanks to EVERYONE who has prayed for and supported me--may you be blessed far beyond your wildest dreams. 
Thanks to everybody at home whose encouragements really spurred me on in readiness for this adventure. 
Thanks to Jesus, who somehow managed to pull it all together so that a girl ended up packed and ready to go  this morning! (In human terms, a miracle has occurred.) 
God truly is awesome and He has me here for a purpose. 
I remember somebody telling me that everything has a purpose--of course it was no new revelation, but I think it's good to be reminded of it.....
because when something feels useless, or purposeless, it's easy to slip into thinking, maybe it doesn't really matter. 
But our littlest actions especially matter. 
Take a moment to think...that matters. 
Take a moment to hug the person you love....that matters. 
Don't assume that those little things are unimportant, or that no one will notice if you don't do them. 
God cares about the little things. 
His eye is on the sparrow, 

and I know He watches me....
I sing because I'm happy.
I sing because I'm free. 

(but Christy, please take Latte for walks!) 

(I miss you all!)
