Sorry it has taken me so long to post this blog.  This past week has been crazy in so many ways!

anyway...respect:

Respect can be different sometimes.  The act of showing respect to someone I think is different than you having respect for them.  Everyone should be shown respect unconditionally.  We were ALL made in the image of God so we ALL should at least show respect ton one another.  However, if you respect a person greatly, that goes much deeper than just showing respect in every day circumstances.  That involves that person probably being an example that you look up to.  That has to be earned.

I try to show respect to all the people I come in contact with but I am very human...so I often fail...very often. I will be paying special attention to that with my team this summer and if I fail to show you respect please tell me and that will set me back on track. I am definitely one for personal space and having something on my own, whether it be a journal or just time alone.  If I am with too many people very close together for too long I tend to get irritable.  It is one of my team. big goals on this trip to overcome that and not let being really close all of the time hinder love and respect for my team. 

I am continuously praying for all of you! for those of you who still need support, for all the craziness of last minute preparations, for any attacks Satan might be placing in your lives, and for us all to grow closer to Christ through this trip!

Love you, ladies! :)
