prayer cloth

Today was the end of a great family vacation to Gatlinburg. I will be leaving one week from today to head to El Salvador and it was great to have a family vacation before leaving. My aunt had made me something very special before the family trip and while we were there, they all gave it to me. While my family was standing in a circle, mom, dad, brothers, aunt, uncle, grandparents, and a few cousins, my aunt starting talking about how she had made me a prayer cloth. It is something very special that is giving to remind the person that there are people praying for them. As it was passed around the circle and as we prayed as a family there in Gatlinburg, I couldn't help but think that all my family, even the ones who were not in Gatlinburg, and many friends are standing behind me 100% and will be praying for me as I am about to leave for the next few months. I am so blessed to have such a Godly family and so many Godly friends. I will carry this special cloth with me to remind me that my family and friends are praying for me. So when I am having a bad day, they are praying, when I don't feel good or need the strength to go on, they are praying. I cant wait to start what feels like a new journey God has sent me on. I have so many emotions about what the future holds but am very peaceful knowing that God is in control.
