Before I started the race I had fears about what it was going to be like.
Now with only one month left I have fears about going home.
Different fears keep coming to mind like:
– have I really changed?
– will I fall back to my old ways?
– will I remember to drive on the right side of the road?
– finding a job after the race
– paying back my student loans and car payment
But my biggest fear is that I’ll forget.
– Forget the things that I’ve seen
– Forget the pain and suffering of people around the world
– Forget the joy, hope and peace I’ve seen
– The different forms of worship
– Being squished in a mini bus with 20 other people
– That a 14 hour travel day is actually a short one
– The views I’ve seen
– The sunsets and stars in Africa
– That the little I’ve lived with is still more than what most people have in the world
– the people and the relationships I’ve made a long the way
But most importantly I don’t want to forget the things God has shown me.
Please pray that I will never forget this year.
Thank you all for your generous support! I only have $600 left until I’m fully funded!
