Freedom & Healing

11 days full of dreams, healing, and freedom - I went into this missions trip praying for freedom in Jesus and God gave me exactly that! I have been living this past year in a half, scared, afraid and hiding...God knew I was living in fear of man and not Trusting Him completely in the areas of my life that had me scared and honestly exhausted. I took what felt like a "risk" and asked my Family and Friends to support me through prayer, love, encouragement and giving financially to go to Puerto Rico. I honestly did not think that I was going to go...I was scared to leave the safety of my Home and my life and travel anywhere...but my sweet friend Azia called me and asked if I would trust God and come serve with Terraviv in Puerto Rico and with her and let God heal my heart and let the people pour into me...that phone called changed my life and I felt at peace in my heart too say "yes I'm coming"

My time in Puerto Rico was like a Full Dream of living in "Freedom & Healing"... that was the only two things I was praying for myself too find on this trip and God healed my heart in so many ways, He gave me the peace of Freedom and now I'm not afraid anymore of what "could happen to me" but now knowing in my heart and trusting God fully to know He will not let me feel trapped in this world anymore and my heart feels healed from the brokenness and hurt, I felt God and Peyton so close too me and it was such a beautiful experience! From serving at the Terraviv Church, too exploring downtown, too loving the people of this Island. I fell in love with Puerto Rico - minus the heat lol it was hot and your girl was sweating and swelling. But God knew I needed the full 11 days away from the life that I was so scared to leave and take the time to just love and let the people pour Jesus into my life and me pour into their lives! I will forever love the people I met and the friendships I made, my life is forever changed and I'm so thankful I said yes! Enjoy a glimpse into my trip with these beautiful pictures of my time on the island & PUERTO RICO I WILL BE BACK SOON!!!
