every good adventure begins with a turbulent plane ride where I feel really stressed and consume lots of Delta biscoff cookies. this one began great.
FLORIDA+O2EXPERIENCE
this trip was epic through and through. words cannot describe how blessed i feel to have been a part of this team. being in Miami, Ft Lauderdale, and Melbourne there was a lot of wealth, big houses, beautiful clothes, and the high possibility of celebrity sightings, but being so close to this liefestyle made me realize more than ever how more than having money to boot and fame to boast of, the ones who are really blessed are us who share in the riches of the kingdom.
my eyes were opened once again to the wells of this world that overflow yet only create more desire. in Ft Lauderdale, Miami, and Melbourne we saw God move beyond expectation, beyond lights and music and capacity, into the realm where everything that is impossible is possible. its all a matter professing weakness, pursuing passion, and letting down the nets.
these events come and go so quickly yet the repercussions are eternal. eternal damnation to eternal salvation. the numbers were incredible but i know that the individuals were even greater and i look forward to continuing to pray for and be excited with each one who became a part of this heavenly family.
i was one of those behind the scenes people and i absolutely loved it. i recently told my boyfriend who was also on the trip that one of the highlights of this trip for me was traveling with this team of people i didn't know super super well and coming out on the otherside feeling like i was taking new and greater relationships back to montana. perhaps this little blog feels random and unclear but its more because i don't have many more words to say than it was beyond what i could have expected and i loved every bit of it. i am fired up to do it again. i am fired up to keep standing behind the vision of my Pastor Levi and his wife Jennie. and i am fired up to see the kingdom of God be advanced until heaven is full and hell is empty.
this trip was culture. it was lots of people. sun and coffee. chick-fil-a, dancing, and google maps. it was music and lights. it was a trip to spread hope, purity, and freedom. it was all about Jesus.
