I'm Back

I’m sleeping in a new bed tonight. I moved to the room Uncle Sam was staying in. It’s “nicer”…well, the bathroom’s nicer! Haha.

The drive back up to the Musekee jungle was lovely. The windows were rolled down, music was playing, and whoever knew the song—in Thai or English—just belted out the words. My heart’s at peace. You-pee & You-pah sat with me in the back of the truck, and they made a nice little bed in my lap. Such sweet girls. And so self-sufficient! Wow. It’s amazing how mature these children are. So we all just rode up in a comfortable silence as thoughts swirled through my head.

Seeing the Musekee children again was wonderful!! Times 10. They all told me they missed me, etc. But the coolest part was hooking up one of the donated laptops to the internet. Tete was just so giddy and happy. We all had a ball seeing the Google page in the middle of the jungle.
Tonight, Tanin asked me to share something with the kids (again). I talked about Abraham & Sarah, how they waited so long for their dear Isaac. And then God tells Abraham to go & put a knife through his little boy? Wow. After worship, we all piled into the TV/eating room & watched some ridiculous soap opera. HORRIBLE acting. Beyond horrible acting. With a nonsensical plot. Goodness.
