We have just finished our 2nd week in Thailand for the 2nd time, and this is such an amazing month. We are partnering with a local orphanage called Agape Home for kids that have HIV/AIDS or are at risk of having it. This ministry has been such a blast, and I honestly can say without a doubt that I enjoy every second of it. The other day I was talking to a girl on another team, and she said that last month that she vowed to stop complaining. I started thinking about it, and I complain way too much… even when I don’t think I’m complaining, I am. Honestly, I have absolutely nothing I should be complaining about, I am on an amazing journey with the Creator of the Universe, I have an amazing community around me, an amazing family back home, some dang good friends, and I have a place to lay my head at night. Here I am complaining about how I don’t like what I had to eat that day. While I am complaining, I am at a place where there are kids who don’t have a family they can talk to, they don’t have everything that I have, and still they find the best out of the circumstances that they are given. The least I can do is enjoy every second I have with the people I have, the life I get to live, and praise the Lord who gave it to me. I can not take for granted what He has given me. Because God gave his everything to save us. So thank you Jesus for being so so good to me. Thank you Jesus for letting me have this amazing journey that will hopefully show someone new you. Thank you Jesus for being such a good good Father. Thank you Jesus for being a redeemer. Thank you Jesus for always remembering me even when I fail. Thank you Jesus for always forgiving me when I am a sinner. Thank you Jesus for loving me so well even when I don’t deserve any of it. Thank you Jesus for being you and never changing.
