It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

A glimpse at my day:
  • woke up at 4:45am
  • drove in the dark to PMI
  • loaded up trucks with gifts
  • road in the back of a Song Teaw (taxi truck with the bed turned into seats) for two and a half hours on a winding road up the mountain
  • got incredibly sunburned
  • met wonderful people
  • reconnected with people I haven't seen in a year
  • spoke a lot of Thai
  • taught English
  • prayed a lot
  • got chills from the Holy Spirit
  • watched people be healed
  • saw 40 people accept Christ for the first time
  • took over 1000 photos
  • helped dedicate a new Children's Home
  • walked out to the middle of a river so that I could get good pictures of baptisms
  • got wet in the river and it was totally worth it
  • ate amazing Thai food
  • laughed a lot
  • remembered my purpose in life
  • thanked God
  • spent another two and a half hours in the back of a Song Teaw down the winding road from the mountain
  • watched someone throw up repeatedly from car sickness
  • drove home
  • got sick myself from sun poisoning
  • applied a lot of aloe vera gel
  • had one of the best days of my life
