I realized something while reading my previous post. I seemed I may have come across somewhat complaining about my lack of comfort in China. I wanted to make sure you all know that I absolutely loved every second I was in China. Even though some of my normal comforts were taken away, I would go back and would have stayed longer if possible.

A simple truth that I understand is best explained through this quote…

“MY COMFORT IS NOT GOD’S PRIORITY.”

Back In America

Posted: July 29, 2008 in Faith, Life, Ministry, People, Spirituality, Travel

The long journey is finally over. We made it back to Texas late last night. 

It is good to be back in America, but I am missing China pretty bad. Our trip was amazing. Thank you so much for supporting us and praying for us. Lives were changed and we were used in some pretty amazing ways. 

Jet-lag is currently kicking my butt today. It was extremely difficult to sleep last night. Still feeling like I was on China time, I kept waking up during the night. That being said, I am pretty wiped but wanted to make sure you knew we were back in the states.

Here is a list of things I was excited to get back to…

  • My bed
  • Gaby and Kate
  • Napkins
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Forks
  • Air conditioners
  • Hot showers
  • Sit-down toilets
  • iPhone
  • Unblocked Internet
  • All my incredible students in SOC/SM

I have a lot of incredible stories to share later regarding our China trip. Let me recover from jet lag a bit.
