A couple of days ago, a few of us climbed to the top of the Dom. I took a picture of J praying simply because well uhm I felt like it. "Missions" is not about making a scrap book, this I understand but I cannot explain to you what was going through our minds, and maybe I can justify this picture through this post.. or maybe not at all...

People have jumped off the top of the dom... to kill themselves.
It's funny.. people who are seeking and searching and come to the desparity of feeling the need to live no longer, go to the place where they should find the answer.. where they should find comfort.. and they DO find comfort.. what they think is comfort.. death.

Since those suicides gates and railings have been put more so at the top of the dom to prevent these tragic occurances, but it somewhat explains the eerie feeling one gets while standing at the top of the dom and looking down.

I'm still seeking and searching to find my purpose here. Each day God tends to reveal a little more of my heart. It's hard not being able to go out with the team as much as I'd like. It's hard not being able to spend time with them during all the down time we have. It's hard having an entirely different schedule as them, but at the same time it's rewarding and I know God is teaching me so much.

I simply challenge you to fill your hearts with prayer. To gaze into people's eyes and to really see them and their hearts the way Christ does.
