Best of o9: Adventures of Life

So you never really know where you will end up and this year is proof of that. Never would I have thought growing up I would end up living in a place like Bangkok. I always thought I would live in Orlando for a long time if not forever, but the Lord's plans are always a little more interesting than my own. My family now lives in Thailand and it has been an adventure to say the least to make this move, not always easy or convenient but always blessed for sure. It was hard (and still is) to leave our friends and family behind especially since we really felt like we had great support in our community at Rio Lindo, however we have for sure seen God at work in our lives and know that the memories we are making now are priceless.
Through this move I have an even bigger love and respect for my wife who left a great place for her to a place that is foreign just to support me and my call to this country. Her support is immeasurable and her dedication to our children is wonderful and am proud to share my life and adventures with her. o9 was a great year and I have felt the Lord's blessings from the birth of Jonah to the start of our new journey here in Thailand.
