Looking back at these past few years, it’s so clear to see how God has taken the shards of a broken time to piece together a new creation, healed and whole in his love. Without having to go through fractures and cracks, I would not have been the rubble that God built into stained glass; I might have stood strong and hard otherwise, but I would have been cold and tired instead of infused with God’s love. Going on our church’s Ensenada youth group mission trip was the planting of a seed that would grow into a real, beautiful relationship with God.
Before speaking of my actual experiences in Ensenada, it’s important to understand where I was in my life going into the trip. Having just gone through my first year of high school, I was lost and broken in every aspect of my life: at home, at school, in relation to others, in relation to God, and in relation to myself.
