I've been back for a month, and am still trying to process all the emotions of such a culture change. I am glad to be back in the States, but sad because there doesn't seem to be the hunger for Truth here that there is in other places. Maybe it's because we are not needy -- there is very little opportunity to depend on God. There is little need for us in our self-sufficient worlds to figure in the existence of a God who provides for our every need. We are decieved into thinking that we do it ourselves. God has provided in so many more ways than materially. He has provided friendships that are from Him, a family who loves me for who I am.
I am convinced that God can do what He says He can do, and that He is who He says He is. Open my mouth, Lord, and fill it with good things!
