So while I was in Houston I leaned that I dont have it half bad. I saw homeless. I saw kids that had no homes. I saw people being healed and moved and growning! It was amzing to see the team growing together and growing spirtually. One day we did a thing called the urban plunge, I HATED it. I was negative during it. So was Lizzie. We were together. She was negative because she felt as if we could be serving and usuing our time for better. I was because I was scared to death. I didnt wanna be there and personally saw no point in doing this. I later relized as we were driving by it that you dont see what is really happening in downtown Houston until you get down there and look for it. Basically you see that you dont have it bad up here.
Now that I have been home for awhile and am off my spiritual high I have made some mistakes. O well I always will. We all will. But, Coming out of the trip and into the school year I gotta rember to just keep going. The trip had ALOT of fun times. But, we also did alot of work. We had so issues but we all made it up. Lizzie and I were fighting at the beging but are closer now. The trip taught all of us something different me it was that I dont have it bad and I need to quit being so negative. I need to serve more. It and worship and how I serve God. I learned I liked kids. It was just a amazing experience. I was so happy to be there and see the smiles on kids faces. On adults face. Moments like that made me melt inside. One day we went to a mens rehab place. As most know I have issues with guys and am afraid of them. Well we got done serving and they asked us to go visit with the people. I was freaked but went with the help of brittany and forrest. I did talk it was cool. I just was WOW God gave me the strength to grow. Yes I can still grow more. But I made progress. I was so happy and still am thinking on all of it.
