the process

In my 28 years of life, I have ended up with a bunch of experiences and a tube in my head and one thing that will always leave me breathless is love and faith in Jesus Christ.
After all I have seen in this world, I think it is impossible for me to sit back and just consume.
I have learned:
- Being uncomfortable is the context for God to work in our lives, how else will we not depend on our self? (I am not saying this from a safe place in my life, things have been insane for me for a few years).
- doesn't matter if He will change things, it just matters that He CAN change things; Its about faith not a feeling
- be transformed by love not just moved by it.
-We think we are deserving, we are not, we get grace anyway
- People make this world beautiful, whether its across the street or across the equator we are all in different circumstances but the same inside; some people use fear and pride more than others.
-A lot gets done when everyone does a little
- uncomfortable vs: comfort, is the big battle we face
-expectations destroy people, have goals and use honesty instead
P.S. Guatemala was a great experience, a long and physically exhausting one. I might have over done it, I have a brain CT scan on monday. I would love to tell you about it in person someday.
