Before 2011 is out, I will have traveled to more than 40 countries around the world; less than some, yet more than many. From the garbage dumps and opera houses of Mexico to a chieftain's hut in Cameroon or a salt mine in Poland or the Joint-Chiefs office in the Pentagon; so many different and amazing experiences. Over the years I have come to appreciate that pictures of these experiences trigger amazing memories. What is most vivid in those memories are the people; those I have met, talked with, seen, share with, traveled with, and cared for. Behind every set of eyes is a soul that was created for more than they are experiencing. The pictures with people in them bring life to the scene; otherwise, it may be just an empty beautiful old building or church, but lacking life.
There are many wonders of this world that I have not yet seen or been a part of, but what is still mind-blowing to me is this passage of the Bible that Paul uses from the book of Isaiah:
"No eye has seen,
no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived
what God has prepared for those who love him" 1 Cor 2:9
This blog is a journal of sorts; thoughts, experiences, dreams, and a remembrance that I am Of Another Kingdom.
