Shout out to really cool boxes!

I have got to give a shout out to the box that my family and fellowship sent to me that I just received. Really, it was amazing.

It was amazing that it made it all the way to Lhasa and when I picked it up at the post office it was definitely worse for the wear, it barely made it the 20 minute bike ride back up the hill to my home.

It was amazing for what was included inside: m&m's, junior mints, crasins, dried cranberries, granola bars, letters from home, nuts, more snickers nut crackers that a single person can dream of eating, a pair of jeans, some undershirts, a UNC basketball championship t-shirt, sunscreen, magazines, some sharp cheddar cheese in wax, grace, grace, and more grace.

I teared up upon opening it, I can get none of those things in Lhasa. Thank you.


He has promised to bring the good work that He started in you to completion...
And He's more committed to that than you are.

Are they looking out or in?
