I want to see beauty. In the ugly, in the sink, in the suffering, in the daily, in all the days before I die, the moments before I sleep.

Bye Bye Barcelona.
As I am getting ready to return to the United States in May I have never been more terrified in my life. In the past I have always had a goal, some place new I was working towards. A new nation to be in, a new destination full of exploration. For the past five years of my life I have moved around. Never in one place longer than 6 six months. Hawaii, Oman, U.A.E., Israel, Mexico, Spain, Germany, etc.
I have felt as I head home it’s as if all my dreams and freedom are gone. I am going to a place where I know maybe 6 people. I am starting over. again. With no new destination as my prize.
But as I sit here in my bed at 8 am I am overwhelmed at the thought/fact of God’s faithfulness. Although I am about to make one of the biggest transitions of my life God is still so good and He is with me whether I am in the jungles of Brazil or the suburbs of the states.
God is God. He knows the desires of my heart because he put them there. My love for travel, people, cultures, experiencing new things will not be forgotten. Although I don’t know what my future holds The Lord does and I have to trust in his goodness that he will complete the work he has been doing in me.
I had been looking at it all wrong. Going home isn’t the end, it’s just the beginning. There are endless possibilities in this new adventure. I am free.
