Stateside

As of July 12th we've been Stateside. We were greeted at the airport by my parent's smiling faces. And as is tradition now, my dad presented me a nice crisp apple. It started over a year ago when I was craving a good apple because they're sometimes hard to find in Belize. I asked if he'd bring one with him to the airport. Now it's something we always do when he picks me up. It's good to be back.

I gotta tell ya, it's really easy to adjust back to this culture of comfort.
We're staying in a mission house and it's very comfortable. Our van is comfortable. I attended church today in a nice climate controlled building with no bugs. I'm typing this while sitting on a carpet floor. It's just comfortable here.

Comfort can easily trap you though and I know that, so I'm trying to enjoy life but also fear God as Ecclesiastes teaches.

My blogging may slow down a bit since we'll be busy. I'm actually in Louisville, KY right now to speak at two churches and take a seminary class this week. We have many other speaking engagements plus we'll be visiting family etc. But stay tuned none the less. Who knows what surprise pictures you may find.
