Your post is an eye-opener, and your experiences there are encouraging - it is very good to realize (perhaps I mean "be reminded," but it's been so long that it might as well be the same thing) that God *is* working on the other side of the world. It's always very tempting to quantify God's power by statistics, but it's an amazingly small-minded person (me) who can presume to judge the success of His kingdom by projecting my own notions of success and failure upon His work.<br /><br />I am a little surprised, though, at the apparent broadening of your focus - I would have guessed that you felt called to England; now it seems as though you feel a more general love for the entire continent. I will watch with interest and anticipation the path of your life over the next couple of years.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17128291835753372522noreply@blogger.com
