quicklike now uh?! day!
fiji would be a good place to come if you like sweat and black people. and indian people. now i happen to like all 3 (not like i didn't before (ooooo you thought i was a racist! you freaking box-putter-inner!)) a lot. i'm having a really good.. challenging time. door knocking has been pretty alright... nobody has healed any blind men (though we have tried) and nobody has come to Christ, but we have been building relationships and trying. its been fun... i've definitely come out of my shell a little in terms of initiating conversation but i count it as a blessing when we get rejected. only one athiest we've run into but it was one of the funnest conversations ever because it reminded me of home... everyone else here is mighty spiritual. i wanna write a ton... but i'm not going too. not until anything MAJOR happens... but keep praying. i'm learning a lot. but i haven't the time to explain it all... i'm keeping a journal for the first time in my life so i can write up a storm when the resources are available. fiji rules.

wow.....it's SOOOO good to hear from you again!!! Not many words, but encouraging all the same. Interesting that the athiest reminded you of "home"! Are you finding that even tho' people are "spiritual", that doesn't necessarily mean they know the truth? what's your measure for MAJOR???? I'm thrilled you're keeping a journal...can't wait to hear more!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're brother's are officially home for the summer, I have to learn how to buy groceries again. haha. We love you, and miss you!!
Blessings and prayers, Mom
spiritual definitely doesn't mean they know the truth.... the know 'of' the truth but they accept it either as just another god to their many thousands, or as a path of life before they found their own way. hindu and muslim are both open to talk, but neither can be swayed by just talking.... we just plant the seeds. God does what he has to after.
ReplyDeletei think my measure for major that day was anything but a 4 hour pentecostal service with arrogant ideals.... sigh. what a bitter day that was... turned out good. i'm just solidified in my anti-denominational views.
