This blog will be a little different—-I just wanna give a little shout out to my girl; Andrea (Drea) Stadler.

About 6 years ago, her and I went on our first mission trip together.We have been friends ever since.
*Our first mission trip to Ecuador*

 

*Peru-summer of 09'*

Now here we are—–on the World Race together.

Who woulda thought?!!

Drea—man, I remember when we both signed up for this thing. We had no idea what to do with our lives. We had both kinda hit this wall and, well, just continued to hit it until we got accepted onto the race.

Girl—–you are NOT the same woman that you were when we left and it's only month 7.

I don't even know who you are anymore and I love it.

We haven't been on the same team and we only see each other about once a month…..and you are different every time. I am so excited to walk with you in this journey, even if it's not in the physical sense but it kinda is.

Can I just say how stinkin' proud I am of you???!
The changes that you've gone through each month have been so drastic; physically and spiritually.

You have given the Father your whole heart and have not turned back. You have allowed yourself to be completely and utterly romanced by the Father and because of that, you have embraced:

  • Confidence—-this is HUGE!
  • Boldness
  • Your identity as a daughter of Christ
  • Strength, so much strength
  • LOVE
  • Your voice
  • Beauty—man, the light inside of you SHINES so bright
  • Wisdom
  • Passion
  • Relationships
  • Family
I am so so so so blessed to call you my sister and my best friend. Your smiles are brighter and your hugs are tighter….haha, like that?
 
 
I am so excited to see who you are at the end of month 11.
 
One thing is for sure—–you are completely unrecognizable and I LOVE IT.

I love you my dear sweet Dre. Keep chasing after the Father's heart—-or just stand still and let HIm chase you:)))
