the gist

I'm not normal. I think you'll begin to see that when you start reading.
Normal girls my age are caught up in their new boyfriend or pair of frye boots. But me? I'm caught up in the grace that saved me from eternal destruction and the Man who gave me that grace. To put it simply, I'm crazy about my God.
And that's not normal.

Behind every action, lies motivation. So what's my motivation?
I want to provide everyone with access to see that God loves them. I want people to know the thoughts and conflicts that cloud my naive mind...


...and I like to blog.

As you read these letters, Candice is you. I am writing these letters to you- whoever you may be.

So when you see her name, say your name.

ready to go


Dear Candice,
4 more days. Did you get that? 4.MORE.DAYS. 96 more hours. Thats all the time I have left until i go to Haiti. This has all been an emotional journey. I have been so anxious about what's in store for me. Quite frankly, I have no idea what Haiti will be like. All i know is, it will be amazing.
For weeks now I have had some hard feelings. I got the feeling that I'm not ready, that Haiti would be too drastic of a change, that i simply would not be able to handle a third world country. But through earnestly praying and seeking God's Truth for the past few days, the lies and hard feelings have been drowned out by the hope of what He has planned. Now, I know for sure that I am ready for Haiti, and I know that Haiti is ready for me.
I don't know much of what is going to happen, or what to expect, but I am cirtian that I will come back to Franklin, Tennessee a TOTALLY different person.
I am still anxious about Haiti. Am i anxious about weather I can handle it? Not at all. I am anxious to see what God opens my eyes to on this trip.
I love you.
Love,
Sara
