Yo boys, you guys better start using this thing before it turns into my home page or something dumb like that
i miss you guys, i need people like you guys in my life, which you guys are in my life but i wish you guys were in closer proximaty. sometimes i try to figure out who would be the closest out of you guys if i just jumped in my car and began searching for 1 of you. Right now it would be STeve, at 7 hours and 45 minutes. but i don`t even have a car here. anyways. it`s fun out here doing this French immersion thing, i`m getting a lot better at french. as far as my spiritual journey is going i feel like this is a great place for me to encourage people toward`s Christ, i`ve made a lot of friends and have (i think) found the balance between not letting down my standards and not being legalistic and foreign to this culture. i want to be an approchable person with Christ. Which my personal opinion is that people with Christ should be approachable. My one roomate is a homosexual, so this is something i`m not used to, but i took it as an opurtunity to get over any stupid prejiduces i may have. i`ve had some interesting discussions with a lot of`"unreligious" people and it`s been really good for me and i hope for them. People are interested in my opinion and they respect me, and i know this is an opurtunity. this is the kind of missionary stuff i like to do, stuff where you are not officially a missionary and you are living your life the best you can for Christ full out admitting to people you suck at it, and you are trying to get better. Exploring the world and listening and absorbing. Be a person who is willing to talk to another about Christ but in a sharing way and not a aggressive way. I have had a revelation where i`m going from a self centered position, as in i am the best off person and i need to help others, to a position where i don`t know really if i`m any better than anyone else, but i just want to share who i am and who i`m trying to be and try to empathize with others and let them share with me as well, or even more importantly. Back to you guys, i think soo many times how handy it would be to have anyone of you guys with me as i meet people and experience life, so that there would be less chance for mistakes, more chances for success.
Quick Prayer list
for the soul`s of the awesome people i meet wherever i go
for the oppurtunities i have to be like Christ
that i would get some solid you guys type people closer in proximatey
and continual prayer for Jon, and for Jannet and I
thank you sooo much for your prayer already. i think time is the best antidote for this situation now that it`s cooled down a bit. Thanks!
you guys really have to fill me in, i don`t have a cell phone remember!
Peace
