In honor of Thanksgiving Holiday, I (Brady) thought it would be a great idea to write down a few things I am feeling thankful for:
1. Getting to be on The World Race with Marin. It is great serving alongside my best friend. PLUS – We get to go on some pretty awesome dates this year (mountains of Thailand – YES).
2. My World Race team (Boldly Present). I love the heart that my team has for seeking the Lord in everything they do. Living in close community can reveal the flaws in people quickly but our entire team is “all in” this year.
3. 3000 Vietnamese Dong Ice cream cones – that is about 15 cents per cone and I’ve been taking advantage!
4. Family support – I’ve felt extremely supported by my and Marin’s entire family the last few months. Thank you to all of you!
5. Warm weather – needs no explanation.
6. Internet – It has its flaws but it has been great for keeping touch with family and friends the last 3 months. Its crazy to think that if I were doing this 20 years ago my only contact with home would be extremely expensive international calls at a pay phone.
7. The Lord’s presence and care – In the good and the bad this year I’ve been able to feel his presence with me; really, that is all I truly need.
That’s all for now – Happy Thanksgiving Everybody! – Especially to our family. We will miss not being able to be with you this year but know that we will be thinking of you 🙂
