Looking to God

So tomorrow I head to the YWAM Tyler base, even though it's not in Tyler. I'm excited to see it again, since the last time I was here was June 2008!! :)
And there's people from last year (staff) that I already know, so that's exciting. :)
TOMORROW, tomorrow, I love ya tomorrow, You're only a day awayyyyyy.
Anyways, I've been staying with a mom and her three kids, two boys (almost 8 and 6) and a little girl who's three. It has been so fun, and I'll miss them, but I'm sure I'll see them again sometime :) Her husband is in Pakistan for two weeks and I can tell that his kids miss him. I hope I'll get to know them better some other time, since I'm only here for two days :)
I love life! Right now is a great time as well. :)

Texas Equals Muggy

What they say about Texas, it's true. I took a shower this afternoon and then my hair didn't dry for like three hours ;)
Granted, I was in an air-conditioned hotel room, but still--weird. Life is just weird sometimes, like me detouring to Boston instead of just going to Tyler like I was supposed to. But I'm in Texas again, and I know it's the right thing. It's that gut feeling, that heart's assurance. Even as I'm scared of being away from my family and friends and boyfriend, I want to do this. But I need to stop trying to do it in my own strength. I am going into this with God holding my hand, and the only who keeps trying to pull away. I want to be there with Him, soaking in His life.
I am going to be okay. I would love prayer for the next months, whoever prays that is reading this.

Love from Texas,
Camila
