I know, everyone saw that one coming. There are no guarantees on the frequency of my posts, but there will still be posts! Yep, Kaleesha will still post on her blog- life can go on for all of my many dedicated fans.
The cool thing is, you can still know somewhat what is going on in my life. See if I am not being diligent in my blog, I am probably not being diligent in much else. Because my life revolves around my blogging... not really. It just reflects my level of laziness. For instance, all weekend I did no homework, rare God time, little exercise, no blogging. Today, I have enjoyed God time, completed two homework assignments, ran, and here I am blogging. For today, I am back on the ball.
An update on Thailand:
As of today, I have exactly one month prior to my departure to Thailand! In realizing this, some worry set in. I have been reminding myself all day that my Father already knows my needs, but it has taken continual reminding. I also find peace in His direction and timing. For those of you who don't know, I had intentions of going on a missions trip with my school to Cambodia last summer- but that didn't work out. I began preparing and fundraising, then bailed on the trip. Not going to lie, I was a bit confused about why I dropped the trip. I told everyone I just didn't have peace about it and it turned into a huge burden and I didn't feel it was where I was supposed to be. But then I questioned if I quit because it didn't seem like God was providing. But the thing is, I am blessed with an incredible family who supports me in any way they can in anything I do. So I was reassured in realizing that with God's direction, my family's support and my own dedication, I could have gone to Cambodia- but I didn't. And I didn't figure out why it was God wasn't sending me to Cambodia until I got home. Many of you know, my dad passed away last summer. Exactly one year ago this month. I struggled immensely in my relationship with him and struggled through freshman year trying to work through these problems. You know why we struggled so much? Because we were so much alike. It is a hard thing to realize that you are incredibly similar to the person who pisses you off the most. From the time I got home until June 6th, I spent some of the best time and hardest time with my father. And honestly, more time than I had spent with him in a long time. God blessed me, my family and my father far more in that month at home than I ever could have experienced in Cambodia. Praise Him for His perfect timing. Despite all the chaos surrounding preparation for Thailand, its different. I have peace in knowing its His plan, and I can't mess that up. I may not always be a good listener, but I am confident that all the time I have spent in prayer and preparation is aligned with my Father's will. He is not deceiving. Despite my foolish worries, I trust in His plan and direction.
"Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning, for I am trusting in You. Show me where to walk, for I give myself to You." Psalm 143:8
Trust.
