I have been in Los Angeles for three days now and I already love it here. Our campus honestly feels like an oasis in the middle of the desert. Our team has already become a family, praying for and loving one another as we start to become more vulnerable and open with each other. As thankful as I am to be here, I have to admit that up until the day I left to come here, I was plagued by the doubt that God wasn't going to speak to me during my time here, that He wouldn't even show up after I had just taken a huge leap of faith by quitting my job to come here. But God saw my fear. He saw the lies Satan was feeding me and He was on a mission to prove them wrong. What I'm about to share is still so hard to believe, but I could not have started this trip off any better.

I sit here typing this less than one week until I board the plane to Los Angeles where I will begin to chase after the dream God placed in my heart and has taken years to come to fruition. I am immediately reminded of the day I sat in the kiddie pool behind my church, holding my breath as my college pastor baptized me. I had no idea then that God was going to relentlessly pursue me, love me, and prepare me to follow a dream He was going to plant in my heart not long after. All I can truly say is, this has been a journey.
