I don’t know how to say it any other way. I’m learning a lot about myself being here in the Philippines. I think that’s why I’m here actually (besides the obvious reasons of course). I’m having to admit to myself two things that I never wanted to openly admit before: I’m a visionary and I’m a very radical person. I’m realizing out here that I have this gift. This remarkable, but frustrating gift that God’s given me. I dream. I see things differently than most people.  I have vision. God’s vision. There’s only two words...

Yesterday I was sick so I decided to take a nap. During this nap I had a nightmare. I dreamt that all my team members were turning into demons that were attacking me and I was scared and kept asking to go home. My team leader Jeremy told me that I was not allowed to and that I had to stay and face it instead of running away. So thats what I did. I stood up straight and didn't move.

But it's still lonely sometimes. I miss my family, my friends, MY BED, and taco bell. Ohhhh Taco Bell. But as much as i miss home, i love it here more.      Every day, God gives me bliss here.

Who would have thought that in the course of one year I would live in East Africa for 5 months and live in the Philippines for another 4. God is so stinking good!    God has done some incredible, indescribable, and amazing things in and through me. I have experienced so many "God moments" that leave me in shock and ah! Sometimes I even end up on my knees with my hands raised, crying my eyes out at the way He moves, shows up and how He is really, truly, God Almighty.
