"Full time missions" saying it out loud still seems crazy, in fact, it seems so crazy that sometimes I just stop and think about how small and ordinary I am but what a big and extraordinary God I serve.
As I sit here in my little apartment nestled into the center of small town Traverse City, Michigan it is easy to become overwhelmed with how much is going to take place over the next 66 days.
1,584 hours.
95,040 minutes.

All I can think is "Lord, how is this going to happen? That's a crazy amount of money to raise in that short of time!"
And my human anxiety and flesh momentarily take over threatening to fill my mind with doubt. And then Jesus comes, sits me down, and takes me by the hands.
"Jessi, daughter, this task is daunting and impossible in the eyes of many. Continue to follow me and I will prepare the road ahead of you, supplying you with all that you need."

Then there is only comfort, only hope, and only love.
