There was stillness in Cambodia. Frogs hopping through fields and snakes slithering through them are all sounds that have been drowned out by our constant busyness. Not there. Those sounds were alive and were the very things that soothed the soul. The quiet ushered in the voice and the presence of the Lord. “Be still and know that I am God” was a scripture that awakened my heart, this month. Without stillness there is no knowledge of God.

Only 2 % of the people in Cambodia are Christians
This is seen often; a grave area in the yard of someone’s home. A strong belief in this
country is that, it’s the responsibility of the living to take care of the dead. They bring the deceased in their
family food every so often because they believe their loved ones would suffer if they were in hell and had
no food. Even if the family strongly believes their loved ones are in Heaven they still bring them food because they
don’t want to be wrong and cause suffering to the deceased. This is a big reason people don’t want to convert
to Christianity because they don’t want their ancestors to suffer as they believe they would if they abandoned them.
The only place we have power in is NOW.
We cannot change the past and we have
no control of the future
The Lord wants to show you His beauty
in the places you would least expect it
