so i leave in two and a half weeks for a nine-week outreach to the philippines and thailand. what are my thoughts on all this?
just get me on the plane already!
im not ready yet, i cant do this!
i can do this.
i have so much to buy!
theres so many things i need to get done for the team still!
we have to finish learning, start learning! the dramas and skits
don't forget to buy balloons
there are four birthdays on our team
im going to be gone for so long!
im going to miss my roommates.
were going to have dance parties every week!
these are just some of the immediate thoughts that came to mind when i started typing.
what i really want, above all else, is for each one of us to ask for God's heart for these countries, these wonderful people that we get to serve, that our perspective of what we are doing will be so much bigger than what we can see or perceive before us. i am sooo excited to see everything unfold, and to watch the students really grasp a bit more of God's character, living it out in wherever we are living.
the opportunity to go out and serve people who have never heard the name Jesus, or have never had God accurately presented to them is a blessing, and a joy that fills me with so much excitement!
i cant believe that i am once again about to step foot off of america for a couple months. i will be completely out of touch with reality here, and so in touch with the reality in the world. a better place to be. a better perspective to witness.
get me on that plane already!
