It's definitely lonely here sometimes. I mean sure i'm around people ALL the time, we can't go anywhere without 3 in a group and 1 guy, and i am surrounded by adorable kids daily. But it's still lonely sometimes. I miss my family, my friends, MY BED, and taco bell. Ohhhh Taco Bell. But as much as i miss home, i love it here more.
Every day, God gives me bliss here. When i am feeling overwhelmed or down, i instantly get a calmness over me where i think "Why would i ever want to leave this place?"
Back at training camp, there was this leader that for some reason i was so fascinated by. Her name's Kristen, and she's leading the trip to Thailand. She is the exact image of what i think a wicked rad christian girl is, and her arm tattoo is so stellar. Anyway, I just wanted to be her friend. This morning when i got on my facebook, there was an unexpected message from her. She was basically just letting me know that the lord was giving her a word for me, which was Strength. Then she proceeds to quote my favorite bible verse, Proverbs 31:25. Crack open your bible and give it a read 
.
How encouraging is that!? When i was lacking in strength, the Lord spoke to someone that i look up to and He provided her with words to help me out. God is SO GOOD and this place is filled with his love.
