We can't really try to plug into that life with an analogy; it wouldn't be appropriate.<br /><br />But every time you have written about them, their graciousness and love shines through in everything! We have much to learn about how to live with that kind of heart. How wonderful to see their response to hearing the message of the Bible!Sue J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08668691234427771146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359970966501743019.post-18675531775088000012011-04-02T06:33:36.187-04:002011-04-02T06:33:36.187-04:00Each time I read about that area it amazes me how ...Each time I read about that area it amazes me how those people survive.

A great way to debrief your experiences.<br /><br />On this post, I can hardly make it past "parched land leads to parched people." No place to put that in my little head.

Undoubtedly, that was a shaping moment for all of you. <br /><br />I'm so glad you said "yes" to God to go... just as the disciples did. I'm not sure where's He's calling me to next, I just know that he'll be there when I arrive.<br /><br />peace~elaine<br /><br />PS: Are you going to She Speaks this year?elaine @ peace for the journeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09675745465728814736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359970966501743019.post-52496098033251915182011-04-01T20:07:22.766-04:002011-04-01T20:07:22.766-04:00This really puts it in perspective, Kelly. We are ...This really puts it in perspective, Kelly. We are blessed in so many ways in the good old USA and yet so many people still focus on the trivial and make life much more difficult than it needs to be. God is great! And even though life isn't perfect, we have so much comfort that we take it all for granted. Here we complain because we didn't get a raise this year or we have to pay a $10 co-pay to visit the doctor. And other people don't have jobs or homes or safe water to drink or even basic toilet facilities.

Any chance I'll see you there? <br /><br />I'm on facebook too, if you are "there" and want to catch up.

We got a small taste of not having it when a flood and resulting oil spill hit our town a few years ago. Can't imagine what it must be like to have an ongoing need...<br /><br />And the Living Water? May I never take it for granted!Cheryl Barkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15700429665500763372noreply@blogger.com
