As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God? Psalm 42:1-2

The Philippines

Our trip to the Philippines was absolutely amazing! It was used by God to change a lot of things in my life. It has really changed the way I look at, missions, evangelism, money/ giving, and "bearing one another's  burdens". Missions, because I now realize that "missions" is a life style, not a job. Evangelism, because now see that it takes priority over so many things that we spend so much time on. Money, because now I see the impact that individual giving has on ministries worldwide. Bearing one another's burdens, because now I realize that supporting missionaries requires much more than writing a check every month and praying for them hopefully about as often. 
I thank God for allowing me such an opportunity. It was wonderful to see how God is working in other countries.
