We have just returned from Cambodia and are getting ready to head off to China. This past month has been challenging and rewarding.
I really enjoyed our ministry this month. It’s been one of the few times where I felt like I fit really well into my work, getting to teach and fellowship with guys. I enjoyed being challenged by their questions and trying to help them understand more about the bible and this Jesus they have been hearing about.
I struggled finding the balance of doing enough and being at peace with the amount of work I was doing. I also got hit with realizing how close to the end this chapter in my life is.
So tomorrow I fly off to China to finish the race (in a biblical and literal sense). I don’t know what I’ll find there. Please pray that we finish strong and bring ourselves safely home ready to continue the plans that God has in store for us.
Note: Communication could be regular, slim, or none this month. Depending on where we are and what our contacts tell us, we might not be able to post blogs. With the olympics coming up in China next year, the government is keeping heavy tabs on groups of Americans coming in. Emails and websites have always been monitered by the government and will continue to be so. Just be careful when you send emails to loved ones here about words like God, Jesus, Church, freedom, democracy, etc. I know you’ll do well.
