I wish I was more mindfull of God so that even simple, less obvious things would draw me closer to Him. Unfortunately, I find that I'm pretty jadded at times. If anthing, being in Cambodia has caused me to long for heaven more intensely. Being surrounded by so much ugliness, physically and spiritually, has led me call out to God for Christ's return more than ever. Audrey,

Nice! Been bracing myself for life in a place I think is pretty ugly too. I seriously wonder if city-living dulls us towards God. After all, "the heavens declare the glory of God", etc. But then again, great art, literature, etc. can help us see God. And we can see Him through people. Am reminded of folks like Mother Teresa and Henri Nouwen talking about seeing Jesus in the faces of folks that are "least" and most despised. Your thoughts? Do you think the ugliness that surrounds you everyday in Cambodia has forced you to look for God in the less obvious places? At any rate, the sensitive way you and Danny process your experiences in Cambodia have always been thought-provoking and challenging. Thanks for your open eyes...and for your blogging!

That place sounded amazing! I remember feeling similar feelings being in Vietnam about how gray and dirty it was there at times. I'm reading the rest of your blogs and catching up with you. TTyl. Reading your blog is a bit of fresh perspective for me... wedding planning can be so consuming. Love, pie Hi Anita…
