I can’t believe it’s finally July and The World Race is beginning! In 2 days I will fly to Florida and then Monday morning bright and early (4am) I meet the rest of my squad to fly out to Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic! We launch out of the Domincian Republic and then head to Haiti.
It seems like every hour my emotions change from totally excitement to what am I doing to man I am actually going to miss St Louis. Regardless of my emotions I know I will be okay because God is bigger than the way I am feeling moment to moment. I have missed out on too many things in my life, because of fear. Now starts a new adventure where I am not going to give up, not going to allow fear to hold me back, but instead I am surrending to what God has for me knowing He loves me and has a plan for my life.
It’s been a crazy 7 years St Louis. I am so grateful to God that my plans got messed up when I came to St Louis. I don’t know what the future holds and if I will in St Louis again, but I do know St Louis will always be home to me. That’s right I said it. Despite your sub par football team and your even worse football fans. Despite you not having beautiful lakes and mountains I really truly do love St Louis and all the people who loved me through my depression and addiction.
I don’t know what the internet situation will be in Haiti and when I will be able to blog again. But until then please keep myself, my teammates, my squadmates and the country of Haiti in your prayers. I love you all. Peace Out St Louis.
