Landing

Well, I am finally in India. As I sit here in the Internet Cafe where we pay 10 rupees for every half hour and the little boys playing a computer game next to me chatter in Malayalam, I reflect on the last few days. The flight was hellish-28 hours' traveling all together. The loneliness was strong-for the first two days I had to excuse myself every once in a while to run to my room and sob my eyes out. But after some friendships were formed and some important conversations were had, I came to a few important conclusions and I am now very glad to be here. It is now my constant prayer that God will teach me to desire him above all else, even unto the loss of my life and those I love. I am learning constantly and I hope to return home a little more independent, a little wiser, and a lot stronger. Please continue to pray for me-I can always use it.
