During a photo shoot with my roommate this weekend (she was working on portrait lighting for our outreach), this photo was captured, somewhat unintentionally I believe. But I have to laugh when I look at it, because it speaks so loudly the heart of what I'm feeling right now. I'm excited, anxious, grateful - and my stomach is completely filled with butterflies because I have no idea what I've gotten myself into.
I'm sitting in the Denver International Airport right now, it's going to be a long day of flights, layovers, and airport after airport in 4 different countries. I'm only a few hours in, but already I can tell this is going to be a long day of thinking, praying and prepping myself. My team is together, the 7 of us with MacBooks in hand, laughing and dancing and slightly freaking out. We hit the ground running in Nepal Friday afternoon, with two weeks scheduled full of research, interviews, filming and festivals.
Though much of this outreach revolves around traveling, I'm beginning to see that there will be some major blessings in spite of the burdens and complications that come with it. No matter how packed my schedule gets, there will always be a break. A time to reflect, debrief, and prepare for the next location - even if it's just a few hours in the airport. & hopefully every airport has great of internet connection, that with processing comes e-mails, skype calls and blog updates :) Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers! Only God knows what's in store, but I'm ready to get out there and see what he's got for me.
