I had the oppertunity to travel half way around the world with these two beautiful women of God. Savannah and Devin. They were such a blessing to me in so many ways. As a team, we expirenced life as a Kenyan. We spent countless days in prayer with eachother, encouraging one another and lifting eachother up in prayer. I don't think I could have survived living for 6 weeks with anyone but these girls.
I have had the privilege of knowing Sav and Dev since my family started attending First Baptist Church of Powell, 10 years ago.
Devin is one beautiful friend. Her love for Christ overflows into everything she does. Our personalities are a lot alike...Strong Headed, Opinionated, Outgoing...we really do have alot in common in that aspect.
Devin is able to relate to me in alot of ways regarding my dad. She lost her sister just a few years ago. We cried and laughed and shared many memories of our loved ones. I know that God specifically placed Dev in my life during these weeks to help my grieving process. God is so good! He is able to heal our broken hearts.
Savannah's love life is basically identical to mine. Non-existent. Haha, but really. We struggled with this alot in Kenya. Wanting a relationship, but also wanting and willing to wait for God to bring the one HE has for us. We came to the conculsion that we would be fine if the next person we dated, we married, I know this sounds a little crazy and radical but we both just really desire for God to control every single aspect of our lives. And if that means staying single while we accomplish the missions that the Lord has planned for us in our singleness, then we will gladly take it. Savannah's soul is so beautiful and I was extremely blessed by her heart and journaling abilities this summer. :)
