Out of My Comfort Zone

These last 4 days of training camp have been so life changing. Who would have thought that my life would be turned upside down before I even got to Kenya! It has definititely made me step out of my comfort zone. But it is a good thing. I have to be forced out of my comfort zone so that I can grow and be where God wants me to be. Usually when I hear God,I just keep it to myself and just allow other people to do the talking. But training camp has really made me more comfortable with sharing what God has placed on my heart and not caring about...

Is it seriously September 1st?

I cannot believe that it is the first of September. Tomorrow I will be introduced to my team and this experience which I've worked for and been anxiously awaiting for is here.  Six months ago I was sitting in church when I felt a tug at my heart. My family was going through some pretty heavy issues that were eating away at me. I was graduating high school and praying that God would help me find a purpose and lead me to what he wants me to do. That's what brought me to AIM. After sending out support letters, getting numerous shots, ordering a passport, packing, praying,...

Even Now God Wins

Raw flesh. Bare scalp. Distorted face. No eyelid. Only one nostril. Melted gums. A crippled hand. Patches of grafted skin. That is what I saw when I first met a 1 year old boy named Godwin. Somehow his bed caught on fire and he was severely burned. His own mother looked at him like he was from another world, and to be honest I was a little afraid at first too. In the afternoon when I came back to that part of the pediatric ward I was overwhelmed by a desire to love on this precious boy and his mom. As he laid there on the bed crying in pain I asked if I could hold him so his mom could make...

Far From Over

It’s so crazy that the time is here, just about 2 months ago I was on an airplane about to embark on a journey that I knew was gonna forever change me, the way I see life, and many things were gonna be affirmed. I didn’t know how any of that was gonna pan out, but it definitely did. God used these months to rock my world. To open my eyes to the things unseen, to break my heart, to really impact those around me and the people I ministered to. This world is in so much need, it yearns for truth. It’s our duty as the body of Christ to break out of our bubble and realize what...
