My Houston Video
Got a chance to have a little different view point on Houston due to the location of video world. Got a couple of shots of the ministry moment, sorry they are dark though. I didn't want to disrupt with my flash.

On the road again
What a beautiful thing... to be on the road again that is. From the outside, it may seem strange to think you could miss living on a bus with 36 other people... but it's true. It was great to be greeted by excited teammates after an extended break. Don't get me wrong, I loved being home, and I loved being at a beautiful wedding to help celebrate a beautiful journey of a beautiful friend, but there will always be that special place in my heart for my team, and being away from them... that special place feels a little less full.
So, we're on the road again, Houston. Not so far to travel... but far enough to feel like it's begun again. It's different too though. Changes have been made, there are things to adapt to, so while it is the continuation of a year long journey, it also feels like the start of a brand new journey.
A new journey as a team - to define who we will be in 2013. A new journey on my own - to define who I will be in 2013. While the Lord is continuing to work in my life, to grow me, and to work through me, much the same as 2012, He has also begun to reveal new things. Things that He wants to start fresh on. At times it may seem overwhelming to see how much I have grown, changed and been challenged in the short 16 days of 2013, but it is encouraging. Without change... without challenge... there is no growth... if I am not growing, how can I expect my sphere of influence to grow. I cannot expect to be able to impact more people if I am not allowing myself to be impacted by those growing above me.
While it would be easy to choose to continue, to be satisfied with where I am at...what would I profit, more importantly, what would the Lord profit? No, easy is disobedience in this case, so I will daily have to choose hard. And that's what it is... a daily choice. On a daily basis I can fail, on a daily basis I have to repent, and praise the Lord that on a daily basis He is faithful, sovereign, and gracious to me. He is patient and loving and allows me to learn and draws me back in rather than casting me away after a mistake.
That is the God I serve, the one I cling to. He is the one who will see me through being on the road again.
