Thoughts and Questions on Life After Jamaica and Haiti

It is so crazy how life outside of our country even for just a few weeks out of the last year can radically change my thoughts and feelings on lots of things. For instance here is just one of the many things I have been kicking around in my head. I’m telling you there are countless things that roll throughout my mind, but here is just one… My patience with the people in my life that know of God and His gift of life and choose not to accept it frustrates the crap outta me. It makes me question what picture of Jesus I’ve shown them and it also makes me wonder if they only think they know what the gift of grace really is. I would like to have the guts to get them all in a room and say look Jesus loves you all and so do I, but I’m not going to waste my time anymore doing good things when I can be doing God things. So here is the gift of God all you have to do is pick it up off the table and walk out of the room with it. No strings attached, no hoops to jump though, no getting your life together before you can take it, HERE IT IS! Oh yeah and take it you fools!

I just so desperately want to know how the craziness of life right now is shaping my future and the plans God has for me. I’ve been growing like crazy since college and I’m really hungry for more. I’m just trying to decipher the next step and what I need to do to prepare for it.

One of my favorite things about Jamaica was watching the youth kids grow and learn and thier picture of God get bigger.
