Homeward bound

Home? How will that be? America? What does it look like? What about all the poor friends i met? Is it fair for me to come back to my large house in vantage hills and drive down roads that are smooth? To go to church and have it be warm and we sit on benches that even have cushions? To have more than one sweater plus a few coats? Warm socks without holes? And then think i still need more things? And what do I do with all my things, other then store and fill a room in my house with what i don't use.   Why? Why? Why am I, are we so consumed  with things? And then we have Bible Schools to go to, bible studies to have, Sunday School, books to read... But what do i do with all of it? With all the teaching, all I have been given? I am afraid to admit what i to often do, just keep it all for myself. And don't use it as i could.
I just have much to process and think as i sit here at the airport and think of making this transition back to my world again!

snow capped mountains

We have finally  been able to see all the mountains around us! It is totally incredible!   



Just another picture of the mountains. This day we just drove all around and went to all the view points that we could. We just could not get enough of the beautiful views! God's creation is so amazing. I am having a hard time taking it all in! It is pictures you would see in magazines and my small camera just doesn't seem to get the big picture. I want to just stand in awe so many times just looking and trying to grasp the beauty of it all!

And just us!!!!
