Later that afternoon I got a call from Amanda (my connection to AIM). I told her how I wouldn't be able to come down because I was lacking the money. She asked how much I had, and I told her $2,267 but there was some more money coming I knew. She then told me the greatest news ever. She said that I could come down if I had $3,000. I nearly broke down crying. But I knew I was still $800 short. But that's a lot better than having to come up with $2,000. I hung up the phone with a better outlook on life. And what would you know, in the mail that day I got checks for $800. So by the end of Thursday I had $3,067, just enough to leave! And since then, my money has just been coming in. I have nothing to worry about for a while.

So I leave this blog humbled by God's amazingness, His complete control over my life no matter how small, and His love that He has for such a faithless person like me. Hopefully next time I'll have a bit more faith, and maybe even some day, I'll have faith as small as a mustard seed!

P.S. I just want to say thanks to all of you that have given me support, prayerfully and financially. The only reason I'm here right now is because of you. Everything that I have received has truly been a blessing. I know that God will bless your lives because of your support for me. Thanks once again!
