The last few days have been hectic (but a good kind of hectic). A friend of mine came for a visit while she is home from Africa. My dear friend has been doing missions work over in Uganda as a Director of an orphanage. She looked radiant and had much to tell about her experience in Africa and I was like a sponge, soaking it all in.
She told me how at first she was terrified to eat over there but explained that now she loves the food and is actually scared to eat American food. My friend said that in Africa everything is fresh and organic unlike the food in American where there is pesticides, steriods, and hormones. The fruits and vegetables are gathered from the garden daily and juice is squeezed daily for each meal. I was mesmerized by her descriptions of the country. Although there is slums and poor people there is moreso beautiful sites and landscapes that are totally breathtaking. I was so intrigued by her words and her stories that I literally must have asked her dozens of questions. The thing I was mostly fascinated by was her spiritual growth and how she said that living in Africa without all of the “western” distractions allowed her the opportunity to hear God’s voice clearer and to develop a better relationship with Him. Although my husband had the opportunity to go to Africa I pray that God will grant my husband and I the opportunity to go there together.
Well I wish I could write more but I am in quite a hurry. Kids are becoming restless and want their momma’s attention. God Bless.
