I have been living and volunteering in Haiti for the last 6 months, and In order for me to stay; I need to raise more money.
I know that all of you have heard my Haiti stories and have seen my thousands of pictures, but I just can’t stop talking about it and I never will be able to! This has been the craziest, most insane decision that I have ever made in my life; however, it is the best, most rewarding decision that I have ever made. At first glance, it may not have looked like the risk/reward factor was in my favor, but after experiencing this life, I can definitively say that the reward I receive every day in Haiti far outweighs the risks.
If I hadn’t taken that risk and gotten on that plane 171 days ago, then, I would not be sitting here in this cozy bed surrounded by the glamorous life of America, missing the lack of glamour back in Haiti. I would not have the opportunity to get to know and connect with so many AMAZING little people. I would not be able to understand how truly amazing God’s love is, and how powerful his love can be.
Without risks, there is no reward. Without stepping out into the unknown, you will never be able to walk on water. God gives you the desires of your heart, but, it is up to you to seize them.
Stop thinking so much about what could happen and start realizing that NOTHING will ever happen until the thinking stops and the doing starts!
Step out of the boat and have FAITH!
