Friday and Faith

Today is the last full day of mission trip and it is much different feel than any other day here. The work teams are tired and just about tired of each other, but their work sites must be completed and it can be a daunting task. But in the last day, we get to see something incredible, we get to see the groups work harder than they have all week so that they finish what they started.

I know this blog is supposed to be about my weight loss and working out, but this week, it is about something much bigger! I HAVE worked out 4 times this week and I am eating pretty well and I am excited to see what the scale says when I get back.

This week has been such a stretch for me. I have been taken out of my comfort zone. I have had to adjust my schedule and learn to live on little sleep and lots of soreness, but the one thing I have seen this week has inspired me. I have seen a depth and maturity of faith in these students. Every night in worship gets better and when I think it can't be topped, they go to another level. It is such an inspiring thing to be apart of.

I look forward to being back home and back on my regular schedule, but I will miss all that this week has brought. The goal now is to not let the experience stay here, but to bring it back and apply it to my regularly scheduled life.
