I just got back from mendenhall this morning, and I have a huge pain in the lower back from trying to sleep on a bus for 15 hours. My right shoulder is hurt, and I am sunburnt...I'm in this strange place right now, because I'm coming back from a missions trip, which was awesome and draining, and right away going on another...
I don't know about everyone else, but I end up going through a post-mission trip depression, coming back to my life/house/place where all the ordinary things of life hit you right in the face and you long for the days where you were looking forward to seeing the kids and trying to teach them in the ways of the Lord. Along with this is the knowledge that I am going to be doing all this over, and wondering whether or not my mind and body are going to be able to handle it...I guess tthis is where I get down on my knees and pray for strength...
Ugh. The good thing about this trip is that most everything is being run by my friend wilkin, but the bad part of that is that because it is run by wilkin (who is a pastor of a church plant), I know that it isn't going to be as strictly run as the mendenhall trip (which has much greater resources and time for planning, to be fair). So I don't know what to expect...
Pray for healing with my body, and that I would be able to demonstrate Christ to these kids, as I don't know what to expect there...
