It's About to Get Humble Up in Here!

Here's just a random thought I've had going on through my head the past couple days. Like I stay up until ridiculous hours of the morning thinking about stuff. The other day I looked and saw they had posted the packing list online and I realized there were a couple things I was going to have to get used to with this list. First of all, they recommend that you get some sort of hiking sandals like chacos which I think are like the ugliest shoes in the world! But I know that when I'm really going to appreciate them when I'm over there. So if you have a brand you would recommend, please let me know because this is obviously not my thing.

Also, I knew I was going to have to pack light but I get 6 outfits. SIX! And even though that seems like nothing to me, it's crazy to think that there are people who have even less than that. Like that's a whole new level of humility. In our bible study tonight, we were talking about a verse found in Romans 8:37 which says "in all these things we are more than victorious through Him who loved us." Even though struggle with having so few outfits is not a massive battle, getting over my pride is going to be a huge victory! But I know every day is going to bring new doubts and worries so every one I tackle is one less I have to deal with later. But doubts don't mean I'm any less exited!

PS The countdown down says 178 days today!!! YAY!!! :)
