He hasn't forgotten His children

In just 25 days I will be on the other side of the planet. Woah. For the first time I'm not going to be home for the holiday season. And in some ways that makes me quite sad, but then I remember what I'm doing and more importantly WHY I'm doing it. I do like to try to think I'm ready for all God is going to show me there in Asia; that all I have left to learn will come in these last few weeks here in Las Vegas-that I've seen it all. But if I'm being completely honest, I'm not. Not in the slightest bit. I don't know what to expect at all. God will be teaching me until the day I die. And when I see the multitudes of children being treated like dirt in India and the countless women stuck in a life of prostitution and all around me are people feeling like there is no way out, I'm going to break. I'm going to cry and it's going to hurt. But if I've learned anything at all it's that God is so much stinkin bigger than all of that. No matter how hopeless I begin to feel, God will be with us and He knows what He's doing. He LOVES these people more than I ever could, and He will not forsake them.
