So get ready, this is…
Daniel Auzenne’s
Top 15 Count-Down for
Things I am Most Looking Forward to on the World Race
15. Learning different languages
14. Thai food for an entire month!
13. Latin music in Central America that I can dance to!
12. Going to 11 countries in 4 different continents (duh!)
10. Living out of a backpack for a year (yeah, I actually am kind of excited to be minimalistic like that)
9. Feeling out of place (not being part of the majority culture or race)
8. Not being in a fast pace culture so I can have time to sit back and get to know the people whom I am serving–their life stories
7. Being away from modern technology and consumerism for a year
6. The reverse-culture-shock when I get back home, being permanently changed and not being able to see things the same every again
5. Growing in community with other people from around the United States and Canada with whom I will be ministering alongside
4. Learning more what it means to follow Christ in ways that I never even through of or comprehend before
3. Seeking a greater vision for the plans God has for my life in ministry
2. Seeing miracles happen (I fully believe they do, and am fully expecting God to move in incredible ways)
and the #1 thing I am most excited about and looking forward to on the World Race is . . .
1. WORSHIPPING WITH PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD AS TOGETHER WE SING AND PRAY IN DIFFERENT LANGUAGES! ! ! ! ! ! !
This is the most beautiful thing ever that brings me to tears.
