Hey all,

So I am back home and I am writing this blog to finish out
my Nicaragua
trip. the past 8 months have honestly been the best months of my life, I wouldn't
change a single thing about those 8 months, the people I met and got to know
and love were so full of god, my teammates...who put up with me for 8 months...and
pushed me to be the best that I can in all situations. Looking back, after
about a week of not seeing my team, I realize that I really miss them and that community
that I was living in. they taught me so much about true friendship, and true
love. But life must go on. So taking what I learned from them, and applying it
to my life, I move on. Not forgetting what they have done for me, but holding
on to it, and learning new things as they come. After living in community like
that, I don't think I will grow as much without that type of living. But for
the summer at least I will be living at home, finding a job, and continuing to
fight the "Norm" I can still radically follow God, I just have to seek it out a
lot more. Right now I am trying to decide between young life, or helping out
with my new church service, so if you could all be praying about that I would
appreciate it. I am also seeking the gift of discernment out, so if you all
could be praying for that to, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all
for following me over the past months, and taking the time to read my blogs,
and I just ask that you would not forget how close God is to you, and all the opportunities
that he puts in your life.
