There is so much to say on this blog.
But I suppose I've missed out some of the most important things so far.
Looking at this blog, it seems like this trip..this whole Cambodia thing...is something that I'm getting crazy excited about and am super into.
And I suppose to some extents, yes, I am very excited and I am very interested, but at the same time, Cambodia is not the only thing right now.
Here is the sort of complicated deal:
I was planning on applying to college in the States in Fall '11, and that was dependent on my getting good Bible College grades this past semester.
This past semester I didn't do as well as I intended, so now I have to do another full-time semester to graduate, which means I have to push US college back a year to 2012.
I don't want to do another semester at York because I want to go somewhere where I can really be away from the world, and I've always wanted to go to the Spain campus.
My dad doesn't have a job right now and can't pay for me to go there, but I just inherited £5000 from my Grandma.
I could go this Spring except I can't get the money from my Grandma until all the rest of her legal stuff is sorted, which could be a couple of months, and the semester starts in a couple of weeks.
SO...if I can't get to Spain this semester and I don't want to do another semester at York, then the other option is to wait until I get the money, then use it to go to Cambodia for a few months and maybe go to Spain in the Fall.
I suppose it seems like the obvious thing and only option is Cambodia, but you never know what God might do in a short time, so I'm leaving it open to Him.
And for the first time I sort of feel like I have a couple of open doors that God is giving me the choice in which one to take.
The funny thing is, I'm sort of leaving it up to Him for the first time, and I feel completely at peace with whatever He wants me to do, whether that's going to Cambodia, going to Spain, or just staying right here in York and working a bit or something...
Its amazing what God can do in a matter of days, when you finally submit your heart to Him and purpose in your heart to obey.
