A night full of love. It was Valentines night and the women of Team Avengers were thoughtful enough to take out the three men on our squad for a surprise ice cream outing. And they paid for it on their limited World Race budgets. That’s how I knew the love was real. Such a blessing to have sisters of Christ like them (Martha, Denae, Marissa, and Summer). As we are all enjoying our gelato ice cream, they proceed to tell us that they have an event planned for us…speed dating. The World Race edition. They took us to a restaurant where we sat outside. Us men sat at different tables while the women rotated. They asked us random questions about our walk with God and just about our life to get to know us. It was very creative!! I appreciated that. We also go to minister to some people while at this restaurant. “Life is Ministry, Ministry is life.”
So as we are leaving the restaurant, I feel the bass of music bumping in my chest, it was about a block away. My body started to move a little but I restrained and held myself back. Then this bright idea came to my mind and I chuckled to myself and told my squadmates my grand idea. Click the link below to find out what happens next before reading the rest of my blog please:

God gave me this huge revelation after this was all over:
Your dreams and everything God has for you is on that dance floor. Are you going to stand with your back against the wall out of fear, doubt, and insecurities? Or are you going to finally believe in yourself and in God? When you do, you will be surprised the influence you will have on the people that were once standing next to you against that wall. I can’t even put in words the joy I experienced that night due to seeing so many people of all races finally letting go of the hesitation and just letting loose and dancing. The joy in their eyes were priceless.
Cambodia has been such an amazing time. The people here are full of love and JOKES! I stayed joking around with random people every single day!! Well…we are going to be heading to the airport in about a hour to head to Albania!!! Thank y’all again for y’all support and continues prayers.
And I truly appreciate all of the comments you all write. They get me through the tough times!!
How do you make a napkin dance?
You put a little boogie in it.
Stay blessed and don’t stress. Just dance.
God’s truly,
Chocolate Man
