Where I'm at right now.
Physically: In Valle de Angeles (a touristy cute mountain town in Honduras for squad debrief). It's a beautiful time to be able to gather with this big family and soak up each others' celebrations and heartaches over the last month. It's also nice to just lay in a hammock and think about things (or watch that newish documentary about Beyonce… guilty!)
Mentally: There's a lot of little errands I need to do between now and Thailand. I hauled my clothes here in a plastic bag and I shook it up with some Fabreeze this morning. Oh, and there's the lice business that's going on on top of my noggin. Please go away before I leave this country.
Spiritually: I'm in awe of the way that God allows me to grow. Last night we had the chance to have a creative worship and I got the nerve to share some poetry that I wrote in Costa Rica. To be able to share my creative self with this team is vulnerability in the best way. It's like I come more into myself when I express myself more. And I'm realizing more and more that the Kingdom needs me to be my whole self, my creative, goofy, old soul self. That's how I'm wired. And I'm wired that way for a purpose. I can't negate my purpose, for the sake of the Kingdom. Only I can do what only I can do on this planet. You know? God didn't need to create two of me to do what is asked of me. Just one. Just one willing heart. So I might as well just embrace who I am and go for it, right? And you might as well do the same.
That's where I'm at right now.
