When I tell people I will be going on a mission trip for 11 months as, you might think most people are surprised and a little taken back. Some think that it’s extreme and crazy for me to get up and leave everything that I know. They think it is crazy that I won’t know anyone I am going with and yet, I will be living with them for the next 11 months. Then they ask, “what countries are you going to?”.  So I tell them, and well let’s face it, most of these countries are not top picks for honeymoons. “So… Why are you doing this again”?

I don’t want to hold anything back. I want to go after God with everything that I have. I am tired of being a LUKE WARM Christian. I am tired of going through the motions. I am tired of just spending time with Lord on Sundays, or whenever He fits our schedules. I want to fully TRUST in the lord to the point where I have no other choice. I am tired of saying “I can do this on my own”. I am tired of sitting back and saying “well that’s not for me”, or “I am not good enough to do that kind of stuff.” I am tired of hearing people say “well that kind of stuff doesn’t happen anymore”. God has not changed we have changed. We tend to put the CREATOR of all things in a box. I am tired of being scared. I want to be fearless, be WILD, crazy for my father in heaven. I don’t want to be in my comfort zone. I want to be uncomfortable so God can stretch my faith. Jesus never said that we won’t get persecuted and made fun of. Never said it was going to be easy or safe. He actually said the complete opposite of that. So what if the places I go to are dirty. So what if a 40 pound backpack is my home for the next year. So what if we get persecuted. I don’t care as long as I am walking with God.

For as long as I live, I never want to stay the same. I want to change. Always wanting to change for the better; to become more Christlike.  I want to be a tool that God uses to change lives and I am willing to do whatever it takes. If you’re not a true Christian than it’s hard to explain the freedom and the love that you feel with him.  It is truly something supernatural. Once you felt this inside of you, it’s hard not to share it with anyone and everyone because it’s hard to imagine life without it.  I want to a beacon on a hill for all to see. So that no matter what country, town or village I am at, people will see Christ’s love and allow me to share with them and work beside them so that they too, can experience God’s love and mercy. That is what this trip is about for me.
