Im in Texas

I just want to say that Texas is AMAZING.....amazingly HOT!! But I love it....thus far. Yesterday the team and I went to Six Flags Over Texas and spent the day there. It was about 90 degrees or so but lots of fun. Although the weather was hot, it wasnt too humid. We spent the whole day there and God did a miracle. He kept me from getting sunburnt. All of you know how incredibley pail I am. But with the use of mch sunscreen, I didnt get burnt. Praise the Lord. Yesterday was a great bonding time for the four of us. About 10 roller coasters later and a huge headache, we went and had dinner with our Project Coordinator for both the Dallas projects, Shawn Edwards at this amazing Mexican restaruant. I would tell you the name of it, but I dont know how to spell it. hahaha!

Today we went to douwntown Fort Worth. We were going to watch the longhorn herding but because traffic was so bad, we missed it by 10 minutes. So we walked around downtown and the other three bought cowboy hats, and belt buckles. Im not going to lie, I thought about getting things to, but since I wont wear those things when I come back to Missouri, I figured it was a bad choice. For dinner we went to a steakhouse called, Trail Dust. It was so yummy. And they had a live country band and a dance floor. Dont worry, I didnt dance, but I watch lots of lovely old people get their grooves on. :)

All the times that I begin to question what God was thinking, He proves to me again and again that He always knows what He is doing. There are times when I question whether or not I am capable of doing what He is calling me to do. And you want to know something? I am not capable of doing anything. But God is!
I am really trying to be a faithful servant and make it all about Him, but it is hard. So often I get distracted by my selfishness and my own wellbeing that I forget the reason why I am away from the people that I love the most. Please pray for my heart and that I am the servant that God desires to use. Pray that I will make this about God and the participants. God is going to do great things, I dont doubt that, but pray that I will believe that whole-heartedly.
