Oh! The Places We'll Go!

Oh! The places we'll go! The thing we will see! 

Adventures are so exciting, but also sad,

because you cannot take with you all of the wonderful things that you've had. 

"You did not want to move here", "Maybe you don't want to go there"

but it is never waisted so do not despair. 

For you go, not alone, He is here; you're quite safe. 

He will never leave you, not once, for the rest of your life.

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."

                                                           Joshua 1:9 

"The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged."

                                                                       Deuteronomy 31:8       

I pray these things will be true of me, but for now the word that I bear is 'Terrified.' I am not worried, no. Traveling doesn't scare me and I am not even concerned by the distance. I have lived across the ocean from many people in my life whom I hold dear. My mum says "the world is small to us," because once you get off of a plane a few time you realize that the place where you have landed has oxygen and gravity, much akin to that of your own blessed Earth. Perhaps you have not even left the planet as you once supposed. No, this is only another city filled with people who's bustle harts different routes than what you have seen and in who's skip you find a captivating tune.

One Wednesday, I will have landed in my new home, for the next year, South Korea. I will, for the first time have a full time job; teaching English. I am a recent BFA graduate and, if you didn't catch that, I studied art...not English. I do hope that I speak enough English to make it worth their while. I am excited for this journey and would be so thankful if you and Jesus would have a chat about me. He knows what I need and he made a promise to me that He would be waiting at the airport when I arrived as well as getting off the plane with me.

If you think of it please pray that I would fall for Jesus again and He would help me understand the gospel again.

                              May God bless you enormously as you go on the adventures He is taking you on where you are, may you trust him with out boarders, and "Oh! The places you'll go!"

                                                         Until we meet again,
                                                                                       Haley
