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!
