My day today:
My alarm doesn't go off and I oversleep 2 hours. I wake up sweaty and it feels like layers of..stickiness humidity is all over my face. I get down off my bunk, hoping my hair doesn't get caught in the fan. I walk into our living room rubbing my eyes and my hair a giant ball of mess. Oh, and my ears have so much pressure on them I can barely hear ANYTHING.
So after getting some cereal and staring off into space for a minute, my team and I gather to pray for the day and talk about our ministry stuff we did the night before. We go off for a few minutes seeing what the Father is doing and what's on His heart. We gather back and just share our hearts. God is so good, ya know? Then we ask each other questions to get us ready to go back home. Today we asked "how do you think you've changed the most?" Let me tell ya, there is a lot of depth into this question. It'll just be another blog post. 🙂
We go our separate ways after our team meeting and we get ready for the day or go work out. My teammate Kelli went into the bedroom and the door got stuck. After a few minutes of using muscles to open the door, it opened. Next thing ya know I'm the one that gets stuck..FOR AN HOUR. We finally call for help and the tool man came. I panicked for a bit. You don't realize your claustrophobic until something like that happens. What's funny is that 3 weeks ago I got locked in a bathroom for about 5 minutes. Why me? Who knows.
After my freedom breakthrough I continued on with my day with insanity workouts and showers. Then 3 other teammates of mine want to go to the grocery store. Well. Instead of it taking 10 minutes to get there, it takes another 45 minutes. In all honesty, I will miss those moments. You just start laughing to your teammates thinking, "this is just life" and then the driver starts laughing because he sees us laughing. Sometimes you just have to trust the driver even if it's risky. So we get our groceries and go home, and it's another adventure.
My goodness gracious, this day! I came home and just took a nap. I am going to miss these days. These days of randomness but fun. These days of praying with my team and encouraging each other as the body of Christ should do. The calling out, the questions, the presence. I have one more month. One more month of laughter and tears with these crazy people. Oh how my heart loves them so much!
