A note about SALT

Last week was our SALT trip. We took 3 day trips to various places around BKK. The one that hit me the most was the last day when we went to serve at an Elderly Home. It was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. To see 6th graders step out of their comfort zones and give. Just by being friends and by holding conversations. They did such an awesome job. It reminded me of pure love. The love that we are supposed to have for those around us. The love that sees nothing but a person...God's creation.

I mean these are 6th graders. It was so cool to listen to them talk about compassion and finally understand how to put that into action. I think it reminded me to step outside of myself. That even though I am an adult there are things I do not want to do. Things that are outside of my comfort zone. Yet...God is calling me to do them.

So Lord here I am letting go of the things that I should have let go of years ago. Looking forward to a future that is in your hands and welcoming the new trials and beginnings of friendships that are sure to come.

Thankful for the people that I am meeting along the way and how they have changed me, molded me and showed me how to have a closer walk with my God. How wonderful it is when we meet those people that draw us closer to the Father rather than tear us away.
