BC made it back to States!

I made it back to the states! After sitting in the airport for 5 hours and waiting for a delayed plane, I finally landed in the States at 9 PM! It was a good flight minus the slight delay, though. God was definitely working yesterday and I know from personal experience. I ended up sitting by a lady who is from Douglasville (my hometown)....how crazy is that! We talked for a long time on the flight about the mission work each of us is doing and about ourselves and lives in Douglasville. She is from Puerto Rica and is filled with Christ's spirit. She told me how she volunteered at the Pregnancy Resource Center in Douglasville and how they were in need of more spanish-speaking volunteers to help out since the Hispanic population in Douglasville is growing. She asked me to pray about it to see if I felt like God was calling me to volunteer there. She said that she sees God at work in women in crisis all the time and it's such a blessing to be a volunteer there. I'm thinking that this might be an answer to an unspoken prayer of mine. You see, recently, I've really been into working anywhere where I can use my Spanish and keep it up. I've already been blessed with two jobs where I can speak spanish 50% of the time. Maybe this is another one of those opportunities. I would just ask, if you would, please pray for me as well, at this time of decision. And it may be that this was only an "intro" into what kind of work I may be doing in the future or maybe God's calling me to volunteer there in the near future. But whatever comes out of yesterday's encounter, I truly thank God for being present at every second of my life and giving me awesome opportunities to share his love.
