First of all may I just say, 80s hair
metal is awesome!
and I just found out the the Final Countdown was written in 1986 my birth year!
As you listen to this blog please hit play on the video below its surpisingly much more epic to read! 😉
So just about two weeks till my eleven month mission trip around the world begins! It truly is the final countdown! I will never be the same
I WILL LEAVE
A first world nation for the first time
My family
My friends
My job
My belongings (besides what I can put on my back)
My routine
My luxuries that I enjoy
My perfect weather (its 70 degrees in orlando today)
My traditions
My concept on what is necessary
My toilet! (got to get used to a hole in the ground)
My shower!
My nefflix account
My cell phone (that will be hard)
My family being a simple phone call away
My choiceof what I eat and when I eat it
My comfy bed
have you noticed a theme in this list?!
I will leave all of MYSELF to find…….HIM!
TO FIND HIM
In the people I meet
In the houses that we build
In the aid we deliver
In the sermons I preach
In the eyes of a child
In the beauty of a clear African night sky
In the awe of a sunrise in Thailand
In the women trapted in sex trafficking
In the men who put them there
In the honesty of my team mates and leaders
In the support financially and spiritually by so many people all over the globe
In my journal
In his WORD
The list could go on and on and on and on. This is the begining of the countdown my final countdown!
From what I knew, to something I never have before!
BRING IT ON!!!
