No English On Sunday Morning

Wow! Time is winding down. Tomorrow will be my last Sunday in America for nearly four months. To a person who has never spent a long period of time in a non-English speaking country, this doesn’t sound like a big deal. Oh, but it is. In 2006 I spent two months in Asia. That trip showed me how detrimental that amount of time can be without a worship service in your own language. My spiritual food was not being spoon fed to me like I was used to. Back in America I was more of a spiritual consumer rather than a spiritual producer. I would go to church, get my dosage of the Word, and then pretty much be done with God till the next appointed time.
So taking all that in consideration, I’m going to enjoy my last Sunday in America, but I’m also going to make some serious changes to my spiritual diet this time around. I’m going to take my spirituality into my own hands. I will read my bible regularly and pray constantly. I’m going to make sure this trip is an opportunity for God to get closer versus it been an opportunity for Satan to push Him further away.
