Being here has been quite a struggle for me so far. i'm continually battling with the idea of whether this is for me or not. being so far from home, and having hardly any communication with the people i was with on a daily basis has challenged me greatly. learning to entirely cast my weaknesses and my fears upon the lord has been a blessing, however i am human, and i still struggle with the idea of the fact the i feel like since the lord is not in a physical form... its not the same.
although things are so very challenging... for now, i'm holding onto my dream. To serve god in every way possible, no matter where i am, and to continually love his people.
Yesterday we went into the city and toured a bit since we havent left our house/school much. i havent taken any pictures of the house yet but i do have a few from the city. since we live in a large city and there is some danger, we have to be careful with our cameras. its important to not come off as "rich tourists" or you are going to end up without your money camera and any other merchandise you thought would be a good idea to show. people are robbed here very often. so we time allows, i try and sneak a few snapshots.
