Over the past 8ish months I have lived in one small space with 4 special people who have worked their way into my life. Since every story you will here when I get home in a few days will involve these four I wanted to give you an introduction to my family.
Haden is the most joyful energenic loving little brother anyone could ever dream up. He is so passionate and on fire for Jesus and will share the Gospel with anyone who he meets. Haden is the one who pushes me far out of my comfort zone, he drags me along places when I don't want to go and pushes me when I feel like giving up.
Elisa loves. and that is just how you describe her. I have watched her heart break for every injustice we have seen. She has ran out of the room sobbing when we see pictures of places that have touched her heart. Elisa is a worshiper. She has this longing desire to understand God and everytime He reveals more of himself to her- Elisa brings it all back in the most beautiful expression of worship.
Anna is the beautiful gentle spirit that comforts me when I need a hug, a hand hold, or just a friend to listen. Anna is the type of person anyone is drawn to. She shines Jesus out of every pore in her body. Anna has made deep friendships in every country and often is the one driving our prayers.
Jacob. our prophet. Jacob has grown more than I have ever seen a person grow in the past three months. He digs and longs and prays and desires the Bible and God. Jacob has changed from the 18 year old boy who left on this trip not knowing what to expect into a real Man after God's own heart.
So this is my family. We fight, we argue, we annoy each other, but in the end- they are the thing I am going to miss the most when I go home. God has molded our hearts into one- all desiring Him.
To my new little family- I will miss you, and I love you.
