So on the eve of leaving for my first ever missions trip, my mind is kind of all over the place. I am even having a hard time expressing what I’m so excited about. I guess I am just really jazzed to think something I do during this trip might help someone, or that He might use me to share a word. But saying it like that sounds odd. That should be my life every day, not just when I go on a special trips.
Probably my greatest desire other than to know God more intimately, is the desire to be a true mirror of his love. Basically be like a flashlight shining his love into the dark spots.
Hopefully I will have the utility of a flashlight, but be able to express the beauty and wonder of God’s love. Like fireflies on a summer night I will just glow with his love.
And maybe I’ll bring home some lessons I can apply to my everyday life. If my hotel has wi-fi I will keep you all posted. If not you can expect a really long report when I get home!
Prayers will be said for you while you are gone.
