Hey everybody - plan for a short post today; I have been battling some sort of head cold/flu for the past few days and am running right now on the energy of a piece of toast, which I know will wear off quickly.

     This week picked back up with ministry at Corazon Contento and more preparation for the VidaJoven 5K run next Saturday. My discipleship times with Heather have been so good and I just love that girl to pieces. I'm planning on laying low today and tomorrow morning, then tomorrow afternoon our whole team is headed to a farm owned by one of the men doing construction at El Puente, for "the first annual piglet and lamby roast", complete with hayrides and horseback riding and who knows what else. I'm looking forward to it, and hoping that I will have the energy to enjoy it as much as the rest of the team.

     My time left here in Granada is quickly coming to an end, and with that come the accompanying mixed emotions of joy and sadness, excitement and fear. As of this moment, I only have plans for two days out of the rest of my life: one is hanging out with a friend, and one is Joe and Debbie's wedding (whee!). I am okay with coming home with an empty slate, for God to fill as His disposal - because I know and trust that He WILL fill it with whatever He has for me to do. I came across this quote today through Elisabeth Elliot's devotional: "The demand to know where we are going is one
which no Christian has a right to make."  How perfect in God's timing that He should bring up this particular devotional on this particular day, after an entire week - slash month slash semester - of thinking and praying about the immediate future.  :)  But then again, He is cool like that.
