I just wanted to update everyone about the hike!
Hurricane Sally was passing through Georgia and specifically Gainesville today and yesterday. Because of the amount of rain and wind that comes with a hurricane, I didn’t get to do the re-hike today.
However, it has been moved to Monday! (Assuming the rain stops for long enough!) I appreciate all the prayers you all have been praying over me. I ask that you all continue to do it on Monday when I will actually be hiking. Also, pray for cooler weather, because it gets hot here!
As soon as the hike is over, I’ll keep you posted on how it goes. I practiced the trail a few days ago without my pack and it was actually significantly easier than it was last time- but not just because I didn’t have my pack on, but because every day I’ve been surrendering it to God and also all of you have been praying. I’m confident that this time, I’ll pass in the necessary amount of time.
Keep watch for another blog with HUGE NEWS on Sunday! You all will be so excited!!!
Until then,
Sophia
Sophia,
You are a child of God. He called to this and He will carry you through this. I am praying for you to seek Him with your whole heart the entire time you are on the hike. Focus only on Him and forget everything else- the eagle’s wings will come. You’ve got this- because GOD has got you!!!
Sophia,
You are continually in my prayers. The rather is looking great for Monday. High of 69. You may not have it, but God does! When our strength ends is when He can show you how mighty He is. So when the hike gets hard release it back to Him and say all you God! He has brought you this far, keep trusting Him.
Love you and I say that with all my heart. You may not have met me personally but our bond is through Christ. Sisters in Christ!
