It has been a while since I have posted anything, but it's ok! I'm not dead! It's kinda nice not being famous or having a lot of followers. I would hate to have to keep up with all this technology. What's the point of it all? The whole lot of it depends on computers and if they all were destroyed, what would people do with their lives?
People miss the point of life! The ones that have sight don't see the joys that are right in front of their faces! The ones that hear don't even stop to listen to the birds or the laughter of a little one.
"If we all live for something, then we won't die for nothing." That is one of the lines in song sung by Sonic Flood. And how true is it? We sit around in school and at home and waste our lives away.
I feel so suffocated in this American life! I was raised in Benin, West Africa for four and a half years and I was so young I didn't realize the greatness of it all! I wanted so badly to be in America, now I can't wait to get out! I can think of no place I would rather be than in Benin right now.
It's funny. When you grow up a missionary kid, you never really have a home. When I am here, in America, I want sooo badly to be in Benin! But when I'm in Benin, I want to be with my family. Something I want all the time, though, is to further God's kingdom and show everyone His love! That, I can do where ever I am! And I love the Lord for giving me the opportunities I do!
"I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world." - Mother Teresa
