Adventure is Out There!

I hadn't planned on using this blog again until my next big adventure (which, in case you were wondering, will be a return trip to Honduras this next May!).  But I have started to realize that you don't need a plane ticket and and a passport to have an adventure-they can happen anywhere!  And this past semester has been filled with more adventures than I can remember.

But the most recent one has definitely been the most amazing.  The past two weekends I had the opportunity to visit some friends I made in Honduras-in the U.S.!  Some of the leaders of El Sembrador (where I worked this summer) are in the United States for a few weeks to visit some of their supporting churches and give some updates about the ministry.  It was a bit of a roadtrip, but my friend Shelby and I couldn't pass up the opportunity.  These people became my family this summer, and they mean so much to me.  It was completely surreal to see them when it was less than 80 degrees outside, but it was completely awesome.

Three months ago I never would have dreamed that an adventure like this could be possible.  But God is capable of doing so many cool things, and He takes pleasure in working things out for the good of those who love Him.  So why don't we expect more adventures in life?  Adventure is everywhere, whether you are playing soccer barefoot on a concrete field in Honduras, or you're feeding goats and making faces to entertain a 4-year-old at Bob Evan's in Ohio. 

So let's start expecting something amazing when we wake up every morning.  You never know what God has planned!
