Welcome Back

Hey, just wanted to take the time
to tell you all that I miss you and I love you a ton.  It was a joy leading all of you and helping
you grow in your faiths.  However, your
trip doesn’t end in Peru; now you have the challenge of taking it back home and
sharing it with others.  You will also be
faced with the problems of not having a regularly scheduled quiet time which
may cause you to feel distant from the Lord. 
However, I promise you that if you seek him you will find him.  He will always be there waiting for you to
spend time with him.  Make the time, it’s
worth it. 

I’m currently back in the AIM
office and we have started remodeling the office to develop it into more of a
training center.  I’m excited about the
transitions, and I love to be able to help in the construction process.  I am still tired and trying to process
through the trip and even the internship before that.  I can honestly say that right now, I feel
lost because I am no longer leading or surrounded by the “Army.”  I know that it may be hard to believe, but I
really do miss all of you.  I know that
it is just part of the transitioning back home process and that I will
eventually find a renewed sense of purpose, but I am struggling a little
bit.  I share this with you because it is
normal and I want you all to know that even your leaders will go through this
process. 

Keep pressing into the Lord and
fighting through loneliness and depression, and do your best to resist the temptation
of growing complacent.  Also, know that
we as leaders, are praying for you.

Love you all,

Driver
