This morning, I cried tears of joy for a former Real Lifer who has finished eleven intense months of ministry on AIM's World Race. Her name is Ashley Musick and she was on the 2004 New Zealand Real Life Mission Team.  You just have to read her update! Here's the link:

I also wanted to share these pictures of Ashley.....this first one is Ashley bungee jumping off of a bridge (OK, she gets kudos from me right off the bat since that is something I have had slight inklings of doing but probably would chicken out!). What a way to finish!

This next picture is Ashley after the jump:

Yep, that's her, with fists pumped in victory! Way to go, Ashley! I'm proud of you, woman! What a blessing to see how you have grown in your walk with the Lord!

How the Father longs for us to fall into His outstretched arms, trusting that He will catch us each and every time. How grateful I am that He is faithful to be there, hemming me in on all sides, never letting me come to harm, but holding me up at every turn!
