NOLA Saturday (travel day)

10:21am: I'm on my way to New Orleans as a helper for a high school mission trip. I'm in a van with 8 lovely high schoolers for 14 hours! We started at 5:00am this morning. I'm running on 4 hours of sleep and feeling pretty worn out. Stress was taking it's toll on me yesterday. I'm praying for the peace of God which transcends all understanding. This is going to be a stretching trip, but I'm so excited to be stretched. I'm most excited to be pulled out of my usual everyday routine. I'm hoping that I can re-focus and restore my vision for this summer and that I can pursue it with passion and joy. 

We got into New Orleans at midnight, had a quick meeting, and hit the sheets!
