????

Hey there everybody, well the 3 other people that follow my blog. Well anyways I hope everybody had a great Thanksgiving. Well as you all know I will be leaving beautiful Colorado, and the comfortable United States to head out to heavily poverished Cambodia. And I had been thinking to my self, "why?" Why am I moving? Why me God? Why did You choose me? I understood that I was moving but I didn't understand why God chose me to do his work. I have a great life here with family, friends and everything I could ever want. I was like I'm a follower of Him, and I go to church, I have mostly christian friends, listen to good music, I have devotionals everyday. I don't know why I have to move. But I've been thinking alot this week and the past few weeks. But I've been digging deeper in God's word and I've really started to realize that all of God's decisions are done for the good in us. I guess that's really all I've been thinking about for the past few weeks. I would like if you guys would pray for me and that I would really be united with God and my parent's decision. Have a great week.

The revieling to the world, well not the world but you know what I mean.

Well in my last blog I was talking about me and my family possibly making the decision to move to Cambodia. Well last Wedensday we finalized the decision. In 7 months I will be moving to Cambodia for 3-5 years. My dad will be working with the organization Asian Hope. They are based out of Denver, Colorado. The do missions work only in Cambodia. My dad will be managing all fundraising for the organization over in Phnom Penh, the capitol of Cambodia. About a month to two months ago I was totally against the decision to possibly move. I was scared of losing relationships with friends that I have over here. I was not willing to leave life over here. I just couldn't wrap my mind around the idea of possibly living half way across the world in just less than a year. But lately I've been diggin deeper into God's word, and have, not that I haven't already, started to realize even more that I have to leave everything up to God. Everything will work out according to good for those who love Him. I will update my blog tomorow hopefully. Please pray for me.

Something exciting, sad, scary, new. I don't know how to discribe this.

Hey guys it's me again. I'm updating my blog for the second time. Today is Wedensday the 5th. Barack Obama was just voted in as president of the United States last night. America is heading in the wrong direction. But that's not what the title is talking about. I have just found out where I will be living the next 3-5 years of my life. Either Phnom Penh, Cambodia; or Fort Collins, Colorado. I will probably let the public (friends, family) know what my family's dicision is. Keep praying for me please.
God Bless,
Alex

Cambodia update

Hey guys it's Alex. I created this blog at 6:21 pm on November 2nd. I created this blog to keep you guys updated about what's going on in my life. As some of you may know my family and I visited Cambodia last year for a short term mission trip. Well just in the past 5 months my parents have been looking in to my dad possibly taking a job there with the organization Asian Hope. He, just last week quit his job. If we decided to move there my dad would be in charge of the fundraising. We haven't decided if we are moving or not. I will update this blog every other day. Please be praying that God would give my parents wisdom and guidence in their decision making.
God bless,
Alex
