So perhaps you all want to know how my plans are going for Germany thus far! We will get back to EVERYBODY posting (hint hint, byrde and bug) and continuing w/ the topic of emotional purity probably sometime after the weekend! :-)
The other day I went to AAA with my dad to purchase my plane tickets and get some info on safety issues, best routes to take, possibly buying a Rail pass, etc. It all turned out to be way more confusing then I thought it would be. For those of you who don't know, I am going to a Bible school in Germany for 6 months. I have never flown before, much less gone on a trip completely alone. Purchasing tickets has proven to be very complicated because I have to be at the school at a certain time, not a day before or after. We are discussing the various cities I could fly into, whether Zurich or Berlin or Munich or some other place. Whether to take a continous flight just to save me the trouble and nervousness of changing planes. Whether to purchase a Rail pass with however many days I need it for, which is very hard to determine, since I have no idea what I'm going to be doing over Christmas break. Whether to buy a one way ticket because I may go on to England for the duration of the school year, or a round trip ticket. There are so many things to consider, and so many things I could worry myself over. To be honest, there is not a day that goes by where I don't think about how in the world I'm going to make it to school safely. And whenever I see a plane fly by overhead, I think to myself, "that will be me in 4 months. Flying off into the great unknown." :-)
You could pray for me, that I will remain sane and be able to make all the necessary decisions in a timely fashion.
And I have to make tons of packing desicions as well. Which laptop to take, which camera to take, how to keep everything safe as I jump from plane to train to ferry to bus, and all the traveling on the weekends. How to pack all my shoes (lol), winter clothes, church clothes - (including really nice ones for the banquets), and all my CDs. ;-) I may just have to purchase an iPod. hehehe. And all the different money issues, credit cards or travelers checks or such...and then safe places to keep all of that while I run around. Ah.
ok, enough of that. I AM really excited, don't get me wrong!! it's just all very overwhelming! ;-)
Well, back to our AMAZING topic next week!
blessings,

"I can do all things thru Christ who strengthens me." Phil 4:13
If you want to talk to somebody who has been where you are - call Mrs.(Lynn) Reeves! She went to Capenray Germany and England. She also went right after HS, I believe. Her family is not Christian and so she went w/o the support of her family. She told me though that she is so glad she went. It effected her life for good- even today she says that things she learned there constantly come to mind and effect her present life. God has opened this door for you and He will bless you. He will take care of you. Let not your heart be troubled, He watches even the sparrows He will watch over you!
