The littlest things can make you smile. Saturday was just one of those rough days. I haven't really had one yet, but this was beyond lame. But even in the midst of the long rough day, seeing a little baby smile as you bury your head in its belly makes your whole cloudy day turn bright. It's like finding the little blessings in the day. Although Saturday was rough, it just made me realize maybe I am more stressed or haven't fully processed everything I have seen and done since I have been there. But no worries everything is fine and dandy. And I am having a blast. And learning so much through my team mates, the refugees, and the Lord. During my off time I have been in the process of reading two books. I just finished Scouting the Divine (Which I must say was really neat I recommend it!), and now I am in the process of finishing Through Painted deserts. One thing that stood out to me was the question " Are you content where you are in life?" hmmmmm am I content. Truly content... I believe I am, and that's where you have to ponder to yourself. Am I really content or am I just saying that. I know I am content. Even when the stress gets to me, it doesn't me that if I die tomorrow I would have fulfilled everything I wanted in life and still be happy.
Sorry for my random ramblings :) But yes ok everything is going great here. The refugees are really learning alot, and really understanding it. Right now it's sad because it's getting cold, they are being threatened by different cultures, and they are being kicked out of places to sleep. The one thing that kills me is that it seems like no one wants them. I WANT THEM and so does my team, but we can only do so much. Please pray for the safety of the people. And that they might see a glimmer of hope in some way or another. Well I am out! Sorry for the lack of updating :( I feel like a horrible blogger! I will work on that, as well as many other things I will work on. Thank you so much for your prayers and support! I am learning so much and having a blast seeing how God is working through me in different ways :). I think the next blog I am going to show you some of my FAVORITE foods I have been eating :) all are very yummy! have a blessed day all! talk to you very very soon :)
