Travel Day

I have been waiting for this trip for the past few years.  If I had a week left to live, this would be the first thing to-do on my list.  I have enjoyed getting to know Madiana over the past nine years of my life.  I sit around and pause and think about how God has given me the resources to go see Madiana…time and money.  I feel blessed.  Why has God provided me with this opportunity?  Why me?  What will it be like when I see her for the first time?  Will I cry?  Will she?  Will we hug?  Is this the only time in my life that I will get to see her?  What will we talk about?  Will she look different than her pictures?

I started my journey this morning in Nashville.  I flew from Nashville to Miami.  I am staying the night in Miami and fly out to Port-au-Prince tomorrow with my group.  I am looking forward to meeting my group tomorrow.  I wonder if I will be the youngest one?  I wonder what my roommate will be like… I know she is from the Netherlands!  I purchased a Creole Bible online to give to Madiana.  I wrote my favorite Bible verses in the front of it. Hopefully she can look them up in Creole!
