After getting back two weeks ago from Africa, I have had the opportunity to tell and show others what God has done for me in my life. Being able to travel to Ghana and see a part of the rest of the world was game changer. However, being able to learn and teach orphans what it means to be a leader as an athlete and follower of Christ was the ultimate prize. This would not have happened if it were not for my team leader Drew Boe. To have the chance to represent the MOAM origination and Indiana Wesleyan University is an honor. Coming back to America seemed as if I was in a movie. Noticing the little things, the road conditions, lights, buildings, cars, and the smell of the air. I began to thank God for everything He has given me. During the time in Ghana, I did not experience cultural shock. However, coming back seemed difficult. Ghana felt like my past, It was rough and a hard lifestyle but felt like home. I will dearly miss the things we day with the children. Being able to connect with them and show how fun life can be. As far as coming back though, it seemed as if I did not belong in a way. I felt that everything God has given me should be given to somebody else who is more worthy of me. Being back is a blessing! All I am saying is, I understand the struggle and it has made me who I am today. Going to Ghana has added another tier of who I am today. A God Fearing Man! Learning how to Love and show Patience was a prayer I asked God daily. Praise! He has shown me how to Love more and how to be Patient more often. I believe with these two characters, it can get you a long way with people you need in life. I thank God for teaching me how to become a better leader and man. Amen!
To God Be The Glory!
