I Want To Live My Whole Life With a Sense of Abandon

I am so incredibly overwhelmed with the amount of love that has been filling my heart these last few days. Tomorrow I leave to embark on the greatest of journeys that life has taken me on thus far.
All I ever wanted to do was grow up and be old enough to apply for a ministry like NET. Now I feel so young, so small.
I'm convicted completely by my faith. I've allowed my heart to be captured in God's love and I am fulfilled.
To look back now and remember the feeling of insecurity and fear that overtook my whole entire self...I just have to thank God for the people He has put in my life to support me. Heaven knows I'm bad with words. Heaven knows I'm bad with emotions (or lack there of, recently). But, wow. Am I ever thankful! How these last few months have flown by!! You think raising $6000 will never happen, and then before you know it, you've raised more than that much.

I'm feeling anxious, nervous, and fearless all at the same time. All my worries have melted away, all my dreams have become realities.
The adventure has begun, but it's so far from over.
In some moments, I feel like a single drop in the ocean (randomly inserted song lyrics: "we are His portion and He is our prize, drawn to redemption by grace in His eyes, if grace is an ocean, then we're all sinking...")
Mother Teresa always spoke of the image of how she was but a pen in the hand of God.

"Do what makes your heart sing..that is where you are meant to be."
