birds chirping. sweet wind blowing. fresh air. footballs. frisbees. basketball. long walks. hammock naps. puzzling. piano playing. thunder storms. friendly faces.
this has been my easter weekend. something about getting out of chicago for a weekend can be so refreshing. maybe it’s the quietness, or maybe it’s the slow moving life; whatever it is, it creates an atmosphere which makes it easier to spend time to GOD. this is perfect for a weekend which should be devoted to reflecting on the death, burial, and resurrection of JESUS.
out here, in the middle of nowhere michigan, it’s a simple life. we are hanging out in a house that was made completely by paul crouse’s dad which is incredible. we have eaten fresh, delicious food which blows sdr food out of the water. i’ve laughed so many times, sometimes it was hard to
breathe.
all this is great. i love the outdoors. but the country has reminded me how much the city needs the gospel. as much as i love it out here, the city is where the lost are so that’s where i need to be right now (not that there are no unsaved out here, but it’s more widespread in the city). there is poverty, injustice, and pain in the city that can only be cured by the love of JESUS. i’m thankful to live there and serve there while i can.
