Remembering...

When you have experienced something life changing, why is it so easy to forget what life was like in that moment, instance, experience? Why is it so hard to be consistent with what has changed? Why cant we just remember...

It seems as though many of the people that came bcak from Mexico, myself included, are struggling to answer the question "What is it going to take to live life here in Missouri like we did in Mexico?"
If Mexico is truly an extension of life, then we know that the love we shared and experienced down there was something real and relevant in our lives here...
If Mexico is truly an extension of life, the community shaped and supported there is reflection of growth of the community we have here...

Through converstions, through experiences, we CAN live the life we lived in Mexico.
Dont forget what God did to me, to you , to us in Mexico.
Be aware of opportunities to live the life.

At the end of the day, God is God. God will allow us to find the life we found in Mexico in him here.

God will do wonders...the question is, will we miss the experience that he has invited us to be a part of.

It's happening. Dont miss it.

Thanks for this one.
I mean...I feel Mexico all the time. But then I am just worried that I'm gonna forget. That I'm gonna go back to the way I was...

I don't really know how to form what I am feeling into words. I mean the blog I wrote didn't even say totally what I wanted.
But you said it all.

I remember...I'm just afraid of forgetting.

I PRAYYY that I don't.
Life has been lived for me since Mexico. I wanna continue living life.
That's an interesting concept. Living life. People live their life...but are they truely living it? Living it the way it's supposed to be?

Just working through a lot of things lately and thinking a lot.
But also learning a lot.

Wow, that was long...haha.

Thanks again.
