Bienvenidos a Miami!
Hello! As I write this, I am sitting in the Miami airport
waiting for my flight to La Paz, Bolivia.
I have heard Miami called the Capitol of South America, and that
definitely seems to be true. The airport still feels like the World Cup is
going on – there are vendors everywhere, and the majority of travelers have
jerseys! It is so interesting to be surrounded by so many different languages,
and still be in the U.S.
This afternoon I went with my family to eat tacos one last
time before entering the land of Taco-less Bolivia. After lunch, we went to the
airport and my family and a few friends dropped me off. It was hard to say
goodbyes, but also exciting to finally be so close to getting on the plane. My
family and friends prayed for me, and I headed to security. I was the ONLY
person going through the line, and had the nicest TSA agents I have ever met. I
don’t know if I just got lucky, or if it helps to go through security with
tears in your eyes. Either way, the agent APPLAUDED me on doing things well and
quickly. I was shocked.
I got Starbucks one last time, and have been enjoying free
wifi and sending as many texts as I want before I leave.
I am so excited to go, and sad to leave. I can’t wait to see
how the Lord will work, and feel honored and completely unworthy of going.
Please continue to pray for relationships with kids, new friends, old friends,
and co-workers. Pray for open doors, and soft hearts!
SO CLOSE!!!!
