Georgia.

Well, I've made it. I arrived in Atlanta Georgia Saturday Afternoon. On the plane, I was afraid. Afraid I was in way over my head. Afraid I was too small for this. Afraid I wouldn't fit here. Afraid I was alone.
Then I was picked up from the airport, from our Director Jeff Hackett. Still fearing was ebbing, Did I not have a host family? was I here too early?
A 20 minute drive from  the Airport to Jeff's Hotel. My host mom met us there.
When I met her, I knew. I felt like a daughter. I was supposed to be here.
She has a daughter. Well, actually she has 2. They are both grown and one is married. Thats the one that Ive had contact with. The other is away at school.
Daughter number one, Alex, was in the GAP Program 3 years ago. So she's been more than happy to fill me in. Her husband was someone she met because of mutual friends in the GAP program. And now they are happily married.
This family is a living testimony of God's faithful hand.
In March, their home church, and Alex's wedding venue, burned to the ground in an electrical fire.
"When God closes one door, He opens another."
The local Presbytarian Church has allowed their church to meet in its gym ever since. Now, the Pres. Church is closing and they have offered the building for sale to their River Church.
Alex's wedding, the Chateu Elan. Yes, where Usher was married. The premire wedding venue. They affered their facitlies paid in FULL. With all the amenities. Full spread, Venue, Catering, Decorating, Guest Rooms, and the Honeymoon suite.
You tell me, How great is our God??
My time in Georgia has been amazing. I feel like part of their family.
God is proving Himself. Not, that He needs to prove Himself but He is revealing Himself.
I guess that's better wording.
Today is my first day of orientation. My first day with 34 new people.
I feel like I've been in this perpetual state of meeting people. I just want to know everyone and be done with it.
But I have a day full of meeting people and team building!
One more night and I'll be in the wonderful country of Costa Rica.
Georgia is great, People are great, God is great.
