Being on the road definitely isn't a foreign concept to me. Every summer I find myself being a bit of a gypsy. On the road to and from Florida, visiting my dad in Alabama, and visiting friends in different states. Not to mention going home for about a week at a time. I always seem to be on the move and never stay in one place for too long.
God has definitely blessed me with an adventurous life full of surprises. Some of these surprises aren't necessarily desired because of the nature of my lifestyle. All of this traveling means always relying on the grace of my friends or family friends to stay with them.
Thankfully, I have been blessed with places to stay everywhere I go. For instance:
Right now: I get to stay in Alabama with my dad for a couple of days so I can continue to raise support and call the girls that are going on project so that I don't have to do that while I'm on the road or busy with work in Florida.
Thursday- first day of project: My friend, Jess, has opened her home to me (just as she has several times before). Her fiancee's family is even in town and she is still willing to let me crash on her couch (even her floor would suffice). I can't even begin to explain how thankful I am for this woman in my life. She has always been so generous and loving towards me and has never asked for anything in return. True friend ladies and gents. True friend.
Then, from May 23rd-July 7th I will be living with the Walt Disney World Summer Project at the Mike Ditka Resort! This is going to flashback central. These condos are some of the best housing that summer project has to offer its students and I couldn't be more grateful for the living arrangements there.
July 8th- August 8th: This is what I need prayer for. I still haven't made concrete plans for this month. Hopefully my friend, Jackson, who I became friends with last summer and his roommates will lovingly and graciously accept me into their apartment and allow me to rest my head on their floor, but it's not for sure.
Being on the road. My adventurous life. Never thought I would be here as a 20 year old. Traveling back and forth to Florida by myself twice, maybe three times a year. Making a drive to Alabama seem like a puddle jump. So great.
I absolutely love my life.
