It's 2009 and I've started a job as the Director of Project Development with the best company in the world: the Touch A Life Foundation. I joined forces with Pam Cope (who I've mentioned in previous blog posts); she and I truly bonded on our trip to Ghana and conceived of the idea of working together after exchanging numerous e-mails during the fall.
I'm in Dallas, TX, now, where Pam and her family live, participating in a weeklong "orientation" of sorts. Pam and I are meeting with people, establishing connections with local supporters, commissioning jewelry, envisioning the year ahead and, essentially, just dreaming really big together. I am so blessed by this job and could not be more thankful for how God intentionally placed me in Pam's path. Pam trusts me and believes in me, allowing my creativity to truly flourish; without limitations, I feel free to explore, fail, get back up, try again and, ultimately and hopefully, succeed.
We're having a huge visionary meeting with everyone important to our foundation and the Village of Hope Orphanage next weekend and I'm so thrilled to be in the same room as so many talented, intelligent, driven, passionate people. God is amazing and if I weren't so tired and overwhelmed with the fabulousness of this week, I'd expand upon that point more...but I think I'll leave this post by just saying, again, thank you, Lord, for this opportunity I don't deserve. I won't let You down.
