We were asked to write a blog about how we felt before leaving on this mission trip. I wrote one back in September but some things have changed. So Here is what I’m expecting… the updated version…

To list out what a person expects for 11 months is a huge task in itself. I don’t know if I know myself well enough to know absolutely what I am capable of… or what I’m not capable of. I expect to not know a lot of things. I expect that this journey with Adventures In Missions will break me out of any, if not every, mold I have placed on myself. I expect to come face to face with tough times and raw truths. I expect to walk away with amazing friendships and an abandonment lifestyle. I expect to learn and teach… I expect a difference to be made in me and the lives of those around me. I expected to be awed and amazed by Gods beauty and provision. I expect my faith to be stretched and my heart to be filled with compassion.

Out of everything I expect; I expect my expectations to be put to shame by what God actually does.
