Are you scared?

I was asked this question during a conversation I had with a relative regarding my upcoming trip to China. The question is a valid one and I have a response to people who may be asking if I'm scared to travel. I'm not scared about returning to China but I'm nervous about what kind of reception I will have once I arrive in China. I'm also nervous of how good of a job I will do teaching English to Chinese people. I want to make a good impression with my team mates, supervisors, co-teachers, and most importantly the students who I will be spending many hours. I'm not scared of the travel aspect of going to China as God is going before us and will give us a good flight schedule and a safe transition to our host schools. I know and understand that God will be with my team so the feeling of being scared isn't as high if I didn't trust in God. I'm anxious to meet my team members and develop a relationship with them so that we can represent our churches and schools in China. God already has a team, school, and class full of eager students for me to share my time and life with. I'm confidant that God is going before me to guide my summer not only as a service to Him but to those I will meet and serve.
