A change in plans...

Hey y'all! Sooo, the other day, when I was still feelin bummed because Kaleo was over, Steve and Joel came to my house! It was so good to see them again and it felt so normal to have them around. It definitely brightened up my mood. At dinner, my mom said jokingly, "Hey, why don't you go back to MB with them?" and all 3 of us replied, "YEAH!" Long story short, what was a joke turned into me going with Joel and Steve back to MB! WOOOO! haha, so yes I convinced my parents to let me go (despite the fact that I have no $$$). So far it has been an incredible experience that I think God wanted me to have. We visited with Dan & Katie, Jahnaya, and Bertram which was tonnes of fun and helped to make me un-sad :D We got to hang out with the Klassen's too, which was also a lot of fun because they are crazy amazing people. Joel and I came to Steinbach on Saturday and I've been staying at his house since then. Even though almost all my relatives live here, this is my first time in Steinbach since 2000, so it has been great to see them all again and catch up on life. Since Kaleo ended, and especially here, God has been so faithful in reminding me every day to spend time with Him and to pray about absolutely everything (I love it!). I find myself writing in my prayer journal about conversations that I'm going to have or even just visiting with relatives... He's changing my focus more and more to Him which is SO exciting! You guys have all been in my prayers too :) I'm finding it easier to pray for you all now that I've grieved over Kaleo and I realize that the best way that I can show how much I love you all is by praying for you. I have until the 12th here in Steinbach, MB, so if you could pray that God would be in everything that I do and that He would guide the rest of my time here I would appreciate that (and that I could find a job when I get home!!!). Also if you could pray that God would be preparing me for camp this summer, with lots of energy and wisdom! I love you all and miss you tonnes! chau for now :)
