“Spend a week in a country and you’ll come back and write a
bestseller. Spend a year and you’ll write a magazine article for a well-known
magazine.  Spend a lifetime and you
can hardly write a sentence.” This is a quote often used among those of us who
have lived overseas for extended periods of time.

I have the urge to throw myself on the floor and pound it
with my fist full of rings. How do I share what I’ve seen, where I’ve been, what I
know! I have a responsibly to share and I’ve not been pulling my weight. Today,
with Kleenex shoved up my nose and a voice that sounds a lot like John Wayne, I
lay on my couch convicted. You all have been such faithful friends and
supporters. You deserve details. But where to start!? I can hardly write a
sentence!  
 

Now that those two paragraphs have taken me half an hour to write,
I’ll call it a day. Tomorrow. Tomorrow, maybe I can tell you a little about the
trip to Guatemala. Maybe.

  2. Ironically, this is one of the most eloquent testimonies for missions I’ve ever seen. Wow, Don. Praying…….

  3. Well, great. Just realized it’s you, Connie. You’re still gorgeous, but the Kleenex shoved up your nose part should have tipped me off. Don would never say anything like that!!!!! :o)
