Todd's 1st Post

I just wanted to thank all of our supporters and say what a blessing it has been to prepare for this trip.  We are getting ready to leave in a few hours and we are over 100% in our support.  God has been so faithful and has already begun to teach me what it truly means to trust Him.  When we look to put our complete trust in Him for our lives, He often will challenge us to give up anything that we hold on to.  God has used this team to challenge me in a way that I did not expect.  I've had a mindset about myself that has not been correct due to what God has done in me over the last several years.  It has been my desire to learn to lean on Him more, and as a result I've had to give up my way of thinking.  All of this, and we haven't even left yet!  I think maybe now you all can understand when I say that I'm excited about going on this trip.
