for those who have been wondering

i have now been back in texas for a little over a month. it's been weird to re-adjust to life in the united states. i miss botswana more than i can say and i had the most wonderful time living over there. i recently attended the urbana 2012 conference in st. louis, missouri. this conference happens once every three years and is dedicated to global missions. it has recently been laid on my heart to raise awareness. not raise awareness in a dark, depressing way but in a way that shows the beautiful light and hope that is present throughout the continent of africa while also bringing the pain and suffering of the people to the forefront of the minds in the western world and wherever else. in this day and age, we have all sorts of technology and i consistently struggle with being content while i am on the north american continent. therefore i am combining technology, something that is readily available and accessible to the people i commonly come in contact with and what i struggle with most, contentment. the least i can do is utilize what i have in front of me and to help me work on my weaknesses. therefore i have decided to create a tumblr which is essentially a blog of videos, photos, quotes AND writing to raise awareness for the people the Lord has placed on my heart. feel free to continue or not continue to follow via tumblr. the new web address is http://psalm1469.tumblr.com/ the least we can do is educate ourselves and allow the Lord to let it affect us. i thank each and everyone of you who has kept up with my life. you have no idea the blessing you are to me. thank you for everything. i will probably use this site for blogging purposes only when i am outside of the united states from now on. thank you and good night ;)
