My almost trip to India
So my dad called me up and told me there was a spot available with a group called The Rising Star which volunteers in India to help those with leporasy. The instant my dad told me i could go i felt chills and started to tear up. All i want to do in my life is Humanitarian projects, (and of course be a mom), but i have a tender spot in my heart for helping others, and especially those in third world countries. The decision had to be made in the next 24 hours and i told him yes. Then, the unexpected. I felt it necessary to pray about it since the Lord has always been a crucial element in my making decisions, so i prayed. I felt it was right, but let alone did i know that was just my mind being bias about the whole situation. So i let the Lord talk, and he said no. Not this year. So i had to cancel, and it was kind of sad but i know that the Lord has special plans for me throughout my life. So that was a tender mercy in my life, and i am just grateful for the many opportunities that i have been given!!

I had no idea about this! You are such a good example to everyone around you Chels, including me! It's so great you've already learned how to listen to the Spirit and follow those feelings. That will be a very valuable tool these next few years of your life (and always!)
