Awkward scale: From 1 to 10. This is a 10!!!


"Life is comfortable when you separate yourself from people who are different from you." -Francis Chan

I'm starting to freak out concerning my trip. I have no idea what I'm doing. I am going to be so uncomfortable I fear. I'm excited, heck yeah, but I'm so nervous.

Fears:
  • How will I possibly adjust to culture shock?
  • Can I handle the traveling 13+ hours on a plane?
  • These people are so different, how do I relate?
  • My team won't be prepared culturally or spiritually or relationally (with each other)
  • I'm not prepared spiritually
Excitement:
  • I'm going to Asia!
  • I get to meet new people
  • I get to know my team better
  • God's actually allowing me to speak on his behalf!
  • This is what I've been called to do
  • Christ is working so many miracles....and I GET TO SEE EM ALL!
Glory to God forever! I stand in awe of God, MY God. "My life will never be the same, since you wrote your name on my paper heart." -Francesca Batistelli

Why don't I get upset over you? Why don't I ache and moan and weep over your people, over your pain? "Give me your eyes" (Brandon Heath).
