Internship

Flashbacks of high school English consume my mind as I find myself in the second week of my Internship. Recently beginning my work in the communication department here in Kona I am starting to see the beauty in writing again. Working under some fine communicators and writing on subjects from a wide range give me the opportunity to develop my skills.
Having been assigned several articles for this upcoming issue of the "Transformation" magazine I feel like a fish out of water. Asking myself "Am I really doing this?" Wondering when I will wake up from this dream and settle back into reality.
Being the main communication between the Kona base and the rest of the world-wide bases I am amazed at the opportunity of being a part of a tool that God has used to transform nations.
Stay tuned as the weeks go by. Deadlines are coming up and the June issue will be printed soon.

where you live should no longer determine whether you live.

Recently I was told to read the speech that Bono gave at the President Prayer Breakfast. I have heard a lot about it but never actually heard it for myself or read it.
After reading it I have come to the conclusion that God is on the move. That the foundational beliefs of this country are still in full effect. If you would like to read the speech I have added the link at the end of this post.
I have been reading a book recently by Loreen Cunningham about how the bible can transform a nation. There are so many examples through out history dealing with this very issue. When God's word is applied to any area of society you can see justice and truth prevail. You can see the blessings and the flow of the Holy Spirit in peoples lives.
Having read Bono's remarks and now going through this book I have come to a new understanding of the blessing that I have to live in this country and yet at the same time my responsibility as a Christian to be a part of discipling it. To be a change agent instead of a by-stander.
