"...And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them." Hebrews 11:13-16

To Internship or not to Internship...

...that is the question.

As I sit down to write how I am feeling about this whole situation I am torn. There are so many things to consider and factor in.

At first it was just about the possibility of war, then the landslides and now a national disaster. I find though that I am not afraid for my personal safety, I actually have a greater desire to go now than I did before. It doesn't make sense.

Perhaps this is more of a tug-of-war between my head and my heart. My head says this could be dangerous and difficult but my heart cries out for the suffering and loss that they are going through. I want to help, to make a difference.

I'm tired of a lot of things that I see in my world and in me. I know that going will change my life forever. I can't wait. I welcome it with open arms.

I've decided to go no matter what.
