Here

I am here. A long and short journy has brought me to a place I would have never imagined living for so long. I remember months and months ago only just thinking about the possiblibity, but quickly trying to get it out of my mind because it scared me to death. Some things don't change - I'm still scared to death, sitting here by myself in my bedroom, in my apartment, in this country. Do I doubt in this situation? Momentarily, I do. I know better than to doubt what has been soo clear in my life. I am forced to cling to the Lord - and I know He enjoys that.

Starbucks is wonderful, you know. I was walking through a mall and noticed the Starbucks and decided to look over. Who did I see, but Umma, one of my closest Indian friends. I didn't know she had begun working at this store (since there are 5 going on 6 here on the island! - you know that 700,000 people have to get their coffee fix somehow). Sooo, crazy!! But so good, I surprised her really good because I hadn't been able to get in touch with her to tell her that I was coming! Her friendship means a lot to me, and I know God will use it in a powerful way.
