On My Way
August 18, 2008
As I write this I am waiting to catch my connecting flight to Amsterdam. Today has been a day full of so many emotions. It was the last time that for me to be able to see some of my mentors, family, and friends for a year. It was difficult to say goodbye and my heart literally felt broken. But now sitting here in the airport excitement is beginning to return. It is such a good place for me to be. The time has finally come and there is no turning back. A good friend of mine told me I am ready and I am as ready as I am going to be. In ten hours I will be meeting the people that will help fill the places in my heart that feel void. However, I am also reminded that my comfort doesn’t come from man but from God. And God has definitely cradled me in his arms these last few days and helped ease the pain from separation. I want to say bye to all of you that I may not had a chance to back home. I love you all very much. And will keep you posted on what my time in Amsterdam will be like (because as of now I have no idea 
)
Things to Pray about:
1) That God would comfort my family and friends that I said goodbye to.
2) Use this time to prepare my heart and help me move out of my comfort.
3) My luggage would make it to Amsterdam with me!
In God’s Awesome Peace,
Adam
Adam, we are praying for you!!! Let us know as soon as you can that you arrived okay and are getting settled in.
Hi Adam
I will pray for you everyday. I am very proud of you, and look forward to every post. Keep letting us know how to pray. I love you !!
wow,adam you are such an amazing young man.thats hard for me to say cuz yur still my baby boy i used to take naps with & you would go to sleep while i played with your ear (lol)all i can say is you are way braver then me.i will always keep you in my thoughts & prayers.i will also pray for your luggage to arrive with you.please keep in touch.i love you more then you will ever know.carl
I can’t even imagine how anxious you must be! Excited and nervous.Although, so far you seem to be keeping your cool
Goodbyes are hard though I know…I’d be lying if I said they weren’t, but God has made them part of our lives. And whether we remember it or not, He knows what he’s doing. Crazy to think of I know, but He really does have things under control. My prayer for you this week comes down to one word: peace. I’m hoping that despite the stress and chaos(some good some bad) of starting a new journey, that God would give you peace. Peace to know that goodbyes aren’t forever and peace to know that God has you here for a reason. You’ll hate me for saying this, but you inspire me Adam. Inspire me to think past what I know and have been told about my place in life. I can’t wait to hear more from you about everything.
