My Very First Post :)

So, here is my very first post; for those of you who know me well, you will be very proud of this first step. I am not one to sit down and write updates and so this blog is something that will be difficult for me and yet something that I believe will be good for me. As many of you know, I have accepted a position as a teacher at a Christian International Montessori school in Korea called KONIS (Kids of the Nation International School). I am now in the process of acquiring a visa. This is a process that has quite a few hoops to jump through and you have to love all those hidden costs. As soon as I know more about a time frame I will be updating people. I am really excited for the experience to come. God is already teaching me so much about trusting him. Yesterday I was starting to freak out about the financial aspect of this endeavor and I just kept praying that God would give me a peace and help me not to worry. Of course, as He does sometimes, He did even more than that - God spoke to someone at our church and they gave me a check for almost the exact amount of what my visa is going to cost. It was like God was saying, "Trust me in this; you have nothing to fear, I WILL look out for you and we WILL get through this together." God is so awesome and I am really looking forward to what He's going to teach me through this experience just as much as I am looking forward to helping the children at KONIS learn. My goal is to update this blog once a week or more. I will be posting pictures, stories and random things about living in another culture. I look forward to writing these updates and I look forward to hearing your responses. Love you all
