Miss them so much....
I just returned from a family vacation in gorgeous Charleston, SC. I love the scenery and the relaxing feeling that I get everytime I visit that place. I found this amazing spot in old Mount Pleasant called the Pickett Bridge Recreation Center. It is an amazing spot to think and pray, especially at night with water on both sides and the Charleston bridge in the skyline.
When I arrived home in Charlotte 2 weeks ago, I could have pursued a job in finance/banking and made more money but my heart is set on working with kids and that is where I think I can make my small mark on this world. Thus, I accepted a job at an inner city school in downtown Charlotte to be a math specialist and coach soccer. I am excited to meet the kids in a few weeks and begin this new challenge. I know it will be very different than Honduras but will be interesting to be able to compare the two experiences and see which God has me better suited for. I miss everyone in Honduras, all the beautiful smiles, generousity and love. I plan to return there for my vacation time this year them.
My church in Charlotte has this verse wrapping around the top of the church and I am inspired everytime I read it:
Hebrews 12
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
