What's stopping me?

(click photo to go to the Hands At Work webpage)

Malawi.
Population of 14 million.
1.1 million orphans.
12% of adults affected with HIV/AIDS.
Life expectancy: 48.

I've been asking myself lately...what is stopping me from going there - right now, right this very second? I have enough money to buy a plane ticket. I have somewhere to go, an organization to volunteer with. What if I just got up and left, didn't say goodbye to anybody, and just went to serve there for the rest of my life?

I'm being serious here.

Thats exciting!

I wake up some days feeling that way about Africa ... packing my bible and guitar, and grabbing a ride to the airport .. carefully contemplating who to tell.

:) Im excited to see where God is taking you !
