Baby, Write This Down...

My friend Kyle stopped me at a birthday party a few weeks ago and said,
"God's going to teach you some things in Kenya."

And I thought: "I sure hope so."

I remember, at the end of one trip to London {years ago},
my friend Pete asked me,
"What did you learn about God during this week?"

And I remember thinking: "Nothing, but I hadn't been
trying to learn anything..."
{I also thought--and this shows my immaturity at the time--
why would I be searching for God's lessons while on vacation?}

This time, I'm headed out to buy a notebook...
specifically to record all that God teaches me

I know I'm not done learning...or listening...or growing...or being stretched...
As if I wasn't excited enough
