Journal Entry – 12/15/09

March 15, 2010Categories Discipleship, from Africa, Moments in timeLeave a Comment on Journal Entry – 12/15/09

As you have probably noticed, I am going through old journal entries in order to "catch up" my blog on life out here. Here is one from this past December: It has been entirely too long since I wrote in this journal. It is funny, as life gets increasingly normal here, the desire to chronicle…

Another Journal Entry – 11/12/09

February 24, 2010Categories Discipleship, from Africa, Moments in timeLeave a Comment on Another Journal Entry – 11/12/09

Here is a journal entry from last November, after I had started living out in the bush to do my language study. I thought this would be a good one to share. Well, boredom set in yesterday. All seemed well as the first two or three days moved by. I actually began to think it…

My First Journal Entry

I thought you guys would get a kick out of this. I wrote this a couple of days after getting settled in. Looking back, its a bit dramatic... but this was all new then. Since then, the journal entires have become much less frequent (unfortunately) and I find myself overlooking things that now seem normal…
