We've been back in America for 3 weeks and I am just now getting a chance to write this. It's been a whirlwind since we have stepped off of the plane in Atlanta. We've been to a few churches so far, seen friends and family and have quietly settled back into the comforts and conveniences of the land of the free...
Things I have noticed since being back.....
1.) Food is huge! And not really in a good way....bigger drink sizes, dinner portions....you name it. Really having to control ourselves and workout a lot more.
2.) I have missed my friends and family so much! And so have our kids! So glad to be able to spend more time with them this summer.....
3.) It's so easy to get caught up in the conveniences of this country. Most every household has 2 cars, more than enough possesions, etc, etc. More than enough ways to be self-sufficient...it's easy to see why Jesus is just an afterthought to people. It's been hard keeping up a consistent relationship with God when there are so many other things vying for my attention......mostly tv.......
Just a few thoughts as I sit here in Starbucks with my Grande Cappucino with Organic Soy Milk.........
