       So over the past few days I've had a really hard tiMe talking to God. Every time I would pray I would feel like my prayers were hitting the ceiling and going Any where. While I'm in the middle of working through this my friend Trevor and I were riding home and I said, "HeY, so what are we gonna do this next week?"

      Now that we've moved to AtlaNta neither of us have jobs or school so our days are primarily free. Its so great because it frees us up to seek after God for what he wAnts us to do each day. Having that idea in the back of ouR minds we decided when we got home we would sit down and just seek him for what he wanteD this next week to look like. 

      The entire ride home was dreadful cause I knew that I'd have a hard time speaking to Him and seeking after Him this week. I told God exactly that, and He said, "If you can't speak why don't you just listen." Essentially God was telling me to shut up. 

     When we got home that's exactly what I did. Trevor had a phone call and I just got alone, shut up, and Listened. As soon as I silenced my own voice He just started speaking all these things and I just listened and soaked it up. Before I knew it Trevor busted in the door and said that the person on the phone had just invited us to go project lead in Haiti for twelve days. 

God is so faithful and I love how as soon as I stopped talking He started talking in amazing ways. Right now I'm sitting in the airport waiting for my flight to Port Au Prince. I can't wait to get there, Gods gonna do some awesome stuff. Please be in prayer for this trip and for what Gods gonna do when we come back.

The End
