sad, huh? bittersweet. I'm more than excited to come home, but to leave "home" behind.. rough. TWO MONTHS went into Portland. That's a lot of prayer and sweat.. and coffee. This trip has been incredible. Shorties to know:
the pacific is not the gulf of mexico. wear a wet suit or prepare to freeze.
watching the sunset over the ocean is super legit.
seattle is cool, but Portland is better. They have cool kids that dance in the pit though. fun fact.
Driving in Portland is a tad bit confusing.
Waterfalls are fun to play in.
Alpaca's are nice.. sometimes.
Jesus is pursuing people long before you are, so you can trust Him to work and not stress.
i really really like riding bikes around the city. dallas stinks in that area.
the first piece of "furniture" to buy when you move into a house/apt is a plunger. trust me.
living on necessities is fun. a bunch of stuff weighing you down isn't.
Prayer works. Every. Single. Word.
I've met some really cool peeps and leaving them isn't gonna be the funnest thing I've ever done.
Patience is a lot more fun when God teaches you what it really means.. and He never stops doing that. whoa.
Food Carts after midnight are better than whataburger after midnight.
Nothing beats a good QT run, though. Straight up.
living off campus is gonna be kinda sad.
Crazy Love is a freaking GOOD book.
God's love, mercy, and grace are too good to be true.. but they are true, everyday, all the time.
That's all i think. pray for the people we'll spend these last few days with, pray for our transitions when we return. pray for a revival fire to burn our hearts, our country, and our world. pray in general. Thank EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU for praying or giving or following, even the people who will never read this, thank you. God honors you now and will continue to do so. Those who are faithful with little, will be faithful with much. believe it. i love you all to death. cheers from portland. put a bird on it. see yaaaaaaa.
