Monkeys wear sweaters and plans change


So everyone I hope you've enjoyed the blog over the last 110 days. I've done my best to keep you up to date on the happenings of life since I've been here. I've had some funny posts, some serious posts and just about every type of post in between This one is no different but it's more about my life when I get back to Oregon. Most of you probably know, have heard through the grape vine, or may have noticed I'm in a different groove than I was 3 months ago.

I imagine it has been evident from my blog that I have changed a lot during this mission trip. This adventure has been quite a trip and a trial for all of us involved. We are all growing and unfortunately some of us have grown apart. That is why Bri and I are no longer together. Yes I know what a shocker. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to email or call me. Either way I’ll see you guys on the December 9th

God has placed me on a different track in the last 3 weeks and I'm trying to adjust to the change of pace here and also plan for when I get home. Sorry if I'm sounding melancholy or bummed. It's been difficult to adjust to this 180 degree change but the Lord is my Refuge and my Rock. I’m just trying to get in the center of God’s will.

You are in the best possible place to see God's mighty hand at work. It is in the dark places that His light shines the brightest. As you return facing now an unknown future - He is going to open up new and exciting opportunties. It is when we face our greatest challenges that we rely on God most and have the privilege to see Him work. Love Mom and Dad
