Just wanted to share this. I was so tired when I got home last nite, but I was encouraged when I found this among the 1000+ e-mails I had to filter through. When I get caught up with real life (T-4s, etc.) I will share my 3-week long experience serving God and others (as well as taking time for ourselves to enjoy the beauty of the country we visited) - there's nothing more rewarding & satisfying to the soul than to see tears of happiness & gratitude on folks maybe hearing/seeing the world around them clearly for the first time in a long while, or on an old widow's face who always dreamt that someone came to fix and paint her house but woke up every time to find it was just a dream...until 2 weeks ago when she woke up to find her dream come true with a mini-washing machine to boot, building a house of worship in 6 days ... truly seeing the hand of God at work ... I digress ... more later.
