I feel as if...

I feel as if I have a lot to share, so here is my best attempt to share it. Here is my best attempt to not only catch up on the events of my life but also the challenges my heart is working through.

I take a big sigh as I begin to write, a sigh that expresses a heavy heart, a healing heart, a blessed life and an excited soul. Lately God has taken me on an adventure of a lifetime. Yes it's been an epic adventure since day one but as of late not only have I been blessed by physical adventures but also an emotional adventure. Emotional sounds like such a negative word, a word filled with tears and uncertainty but does it have to be that way? I would like to think not. So without the words become distracting and my mind traveling so far it would be impossible to explain back to the main point. Let me get there now.

Last week would be the crux of this all. Last week the Surfer's Leadership School I am apart of when to the Big Island for our adventure trip. We were prepared to rough it, live off the land and have a crazy hike to the valley we were going to but I don't think any of were ready for the "eternal adventure" about to happen. For me personally God spoke my language through a camping trip to allow me to look in the mirror and really address some character, leadership and community "characters" that need to be more like Christ. It has been a crazy few days of processing and even though it's been tough, it's a ride taken with Christ that gives me the peace to settle. Along side tears, talks and testimonies - peace and affirmation is found in knowing no matter what God's got it.
