46 Days to go!

"Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked." Psalm 82:3-4

Today is a great day to start my blog. I had to go to the Health Department and get shots for my trip to Uganda. I was really nervous about it, but my nurse Cheryl was amazing! My arms hurt really bad afterwards, and still do. I had 5 shots today: typhoid, yellow fever, adult polio, tetanus/diphtheria, and hepatitis. I will still need a flu shot and malaria pills! There is a lot that goes into traveling abroad!

I was also reminded today that the Lord is absolutely preparing a way for this trip. I hope to get into depth about everything He has done up until this point, but today was awesome. I was going over the list of shots with Cheryl, my amazing nurse, and she said that there was only 1 yellow fever shot left! Because I was the first patient of the day, I got it! When she told me that I felt my heart leap for joy!! I have run into a few obstacles with this trip, but moments like this remind me of how great our Lord is! Although today was painful, I am so glad to be reminded that this trip is in His hands! I will only be there 2 weeks, but just imagine what can be done!
