Perspective

My husband, who is a minister, had the wonderful opportunity to go on a mission trip to Africa in August. Needless to say it was quite a powerful experience. My words cannot adequately describe his time there, the impact of the beautiful people and breathtaking landscape. He summed it up in the word "perspective." In our country of prosperity and privilege, we often forget what is important--our calling and purpose as followers of Christ to reach others for the kingdom.

I hope you enjoy these wonderful pictures my husband took. May they challenge you to pray for the many lost around the world and the amazing people who have dedicated their lives ministering to them. May we also be challenged to pursue God's calling on our own lives with abandon--may the good things not get in the way of the great things. Blessings!


In Him,
Kelly

It is with much beauty before my eyes I celebrate those lives half a world away! We are only a breadth away.
