Thanks to you, those who supported me in my travels to Africa, I have come back loaded with awesome. God's awesomeness. It wouldn't have been possible without your support and prayers. There was a lot that happened in the past 10 days that I want to share with you. I will try to do my best. I know...it's a huge responsibility.
God happened. God showed up. God moved in the hearts of those we encountered, God moved in my heart. That's the 30-second answer to "How was your mission trip?". Do you want to hear the longer version?
They say that not everyone is ready to hear the long answer. I have found this to be true from my stories from the Dominican Republic (June 2010). I want give you the right answer and but please know that it will take more than 30 seconds. So you need to tell me...which answer you want to hear.
It was an incredible journey. One that had more than what I expected, and held more promise than I would have thought. There was discovery of new territory....that of Swaziland, Africa and also those uncharted waters of my heart. Changed happened in Africa, change happened in my soul.
I now see God in a new and fresh way. Not that I had a bad view of by any means. But it is bigger, it's on the wow-scale at 15, it's now expanded. That is awesome, that is God. I can't wait to share with you. I hope you are ready for the long answer.
