it's better together

As this publishes, I will have been in Zimbabwe for a week.

I don’t visit Zimbabwe with the intentions of being a ‘savior’ in the form of an American.  I visit with intentions of being a brother and friend. 

Being part of the Kingdom is simply better together.  My brothers and sisters in Zimbabwe would make it without me.  And I would make it without them.  But life is certainly sweeter together.  And what we can do together eclipses what either of us could do alone. 

So I guess I’m not on a mission trip and I’m not a missionary either.  

I’m just a guy with some love spilling out of his heart.  And I like finding places to spill it.  It can get a little messy with these kids in Zimbabwe though because they have a tendency to spill a lot of love on me too.
