running on empty

Hey guys,

I need some prayer. The past few days I've just been really, really worn out. Physically, mentally, spiritually. It is so good that I am here, and I enjoy every minute of it! But we hardly get a spare second to just sit, breathe, think, and digest all that's spinning around in our little heads! I feel like my mind is going at one hundred miles an hour. I almost fell asleep during class, yesterday and today! I was doing fine at first, but it's beginning to take it's toll on my fragile little self.

Pray for refreshment, and new energy and motivation, in everything. I don't want to just go through the motions and "do" all I'm supposed to "do." I want to get everything I can out of this experience! But I feel like a sponge that can't soak up anymore water, and it's frustrating.

On a lighter and happier note, my Valentine's Day was awesome! All the girls got dressed up for a candlelight dinner that all the guys from our DTS made us. It was so sweet! : ) (I'll try and post pictures. If I have time, so probably not. Haha.)

And my best friend, Arielle, is coming here to Salem on Friday! For those who don't know, she actually attended the Fall DTS and her team went to China and Thailand, and her team will be returning to the base for debriefing. So I get to see her all week and I'm so stoked because I haven't seen her in months! : )

Thank you all for your prayers and love. And keep Arielle in your prayers as well as she returns from her outreach!
