my not so mid-life catastrophes

"You won't relent until You have it all, my heart is Yours"

last night, I went to Immanuel Baptist Church in Benton. they had been collecting change for my internship this summer. I was honored to go talk to them, share my testimony and how I came to do this. they raised $250 for me, mostly in pennies :)
as I was driving home, I turned on some Misty Edwards. her song "You Won't Relent" came on. the church I attend while at school actually plays this song during worship occasionally, so I've heard it recently. but something about listening to it made me realize something about my internship. I'm not going to gain glory, to gain 'professional experience.' I am traveling 20 hours away from my family and friends to glorify God. and if my whole heart is not in this, I won't be able to make a difference. I have to surrender myself to God's will and let Him be in charge. I have to learn Russian, and I know it won't be possible without God.
so if you could, I'd like pray for:
-growing closer to God
-surrendering my whole heart and life to God
-learning Russian
-adjusting to the time change
thanks :)
