Surrender

              Hello world! Sorry it's been so long since I've posted- alot has been going on.
Yesterday at 2:00 AM we dropped my twin sister, Alyssa, and my Dad off at the airport! They are going to Costa Rica to teach First Aid and CPR to the natives there as well as providing Bibles for each home. It has been an interesting experience thus far so we'll see how the rest goes! When one of my family members goes on a missions trip- the whole family is involved, so the last several weeks have been entirely focused on this trip. We're pretty much pooped over here! But they are safely in Costa Rica right now and will be back at the beginning of June :)
             This trip has been such an opportunity to put everything in God's hands. I think that so often we surrender all of the easy things and situations but quietly hold back the important things in our lives. It's not always a war of wills, sometimes we just don't realize that we are still holding back. It is so important to constantly be asking God what we need to surrender to Him- because He is the only one who can show us :)
I hope you all remember, today, to surrender to God- everything situation and every person. Blessings to all of you!
