Post Mexico...

I haven't blogged in some time now and I'll spare you the excuses of my crazy schedule! :) I don't have anything super deep or terribly meaningful to share but I wrote these words on my way back from the trip this year and thought I'd share. I love how the Lord works in me every year and manages to reach areas in me that seem unaffected when I'm in the states. I guess when you're vulnerable that happens....More to come later this week!

When you spend a week away, in a "foreign" land, without driving yourself anywhere, without eating your "normal" foods. When you wake up everyday to faces you haven't seen in months... some in a year. When you step into a land with faces you've never seen and words you don't understand. When you end the day dirty but bearing a smile. When your heart is full and and your muscles hurt. When you labor for a week in the spirit and labor equally as hard with your hands.
That is when you're changed.
