Hello fellow Barneys! So sorry I have not posted in a while, for some reason my account will not let me post and we have been trying to figure that out. Instead Stef, is going to post this for me so here it goes.

Lately I have been feeling very nervous about working for Sonshine this summer. I continue to question, Am I ready for this? How will God use me? I have never been a leader in this type of way before, can I really do this? These questions have been roaming around in the back of my mind, as I continue to pray for strength and prepardness from God. As I am working through these questions, the main thing that God is doing in me is reminding me to TRUST HIM. I think often times I try to do it all on my own, when in reality God has come right along side me to help me! I am working on trusting him and not being worried about working for Sonshine. Instead, I am trying to remember that God has got me to this point and He wants me to participate in this amazing experience.

I think trusting God is something each of us forget to do and I am thankful that God is kindly reminding me to just trust him.

PS. I can't wait to meet you all this weekend!
