I'm a little over two weeks into my new journey here in Hawaii and words fall so short when sharing all that I've experienced. In the short time I've been away I find myself calling this new place home. Kona is filled to the brim with a richness of love, adventure, diversity, and community. From the moment I stepped onto my campus I was welcomed by people that I would soon call family.
There's around 30 students in my Awaken school, and what a blessing it has been to spend each day in community with them all! The campus as a whole represents 37 nations with around 500 students! A typical week here starts with breakfast around 7am, then lectures from 8-12, lunch, class 1-3, and work on Tuesdays & Fridays in the kitchen from 3-7pm & then dinner. Every day looks a little different, being that throughout the week we have worship sets, intercession over the nations, corporate gatherings, family nights & small groups. and typically from Friday-Sunday we have free time to explore the island! Each day is very packed with lots to do and I have loved every second of it. So far my time here has been fruitful, and I'm amazed at all my Abba Father is revealing to me. I'm finding so much peace and freedom in relying on a love that is not defined by my current situation, rather on what has already been done for me on the cross. The more I lean into who Jesus is and how he lived, the more I see how my Father intended for me to live all along. Jesus paved the way for all humanity to live in such a way that love can be the foundation where all things stem from. What the enemy meant for destruction in my heart, God uses to bring transformation. Honestly, letting in all of the truths I've been taking in this past week has been a challenge. For so long my heart has taken in lies as reality, but allowing the Father to come in and wreck the deceit and bring in His truth has been so redeeming for me. I've absorbed more in these past two weeks than I was ever prepared for, I can only hope it continues even more abundantly! I can't wait to share more with you on the growth happening here as I continue to know God personally. Thank you so much for reading and following along with me on this journey!
