On my way to Seattle, WA to surprise my family
A person unwilling to sacrifice
to change the world forfeits the right
to say anything is wrong with it.

I was blessed to be able to visit home for Thanksgiving before leaving for Ecuador. My mom, as expected, nearly passed out when I rang the doorbell at a late hour. Also as expected, turkey induced comas were the norm. Being here has brought about a sense of peace, being able to share personally with my family my journey thus far. I am incredibly blessed to have my family fully supporting my life's direction.

My latest lessons learned sum up in the realization that so often, I've put God in a box. How often do we think that God can only use us when we have our ducks in a row with accomplishing first our personal goals (I'm guilty of asking God to wait until I've married before taking me), substantial bank accounts, and adequate free time? God uses us now. I was about to say, "If we let Him," but on more than occasion, I'm glad God didn't wait for me! Don't miss the blessing folks; experience the joy of being a part of God's work now!

Please continue to fast, pray, and seek God on my behalf as I embark on this next chapter of life.
