I’ve wanted to write out
my expectations for the upcoming race, but I’m finding it hard to do.  I think part of it is not fully
comprehending what is going to be happening this next year – this is actually
going to be happening.  Another
part would be not knowing what all to expect.  But for now, this is what I have:

To . . .  

+ learn how to live in
community 24/7  

+ be amazed by the way
God works

+ be stretched;
stretched entirely out of my comfort zones

+ love and be loved
+ see God’s power
+ learn more about who I
am

+ have no control
+ miss the comforts and
friends back home

+ learn more about trust
