    I’d really LOVE to go… not sure I can sandwich this in between 9/29 wedding and 10/8 speaking engagement. I think it could be much needed to ground me a bit between the craziness.

    Whoaaaaaah. Our sermon yesterday was on how we need more David’s and need to be more like him, and then you write THIS. Its like God is really trying to get my attention this week. Thank you so so so much for opening your heart like this Karen and being so willing time and time again to be used for good. You are touching so many lives through this incredible organization.

    Unfortunately, money! There are so many things pulling my finances right now…I am JUST starting my business (and the main catalyst for this was being laid off from my full-time job a few months ago…TWICE in 1.5 years! HELLO sign!) So, I am just going to pray that if God wants me to go, He’ll show me the way…but right now, I just can’t swing it.
