Daily Devotions - Tuesday, August 26

Back Home Again in Indiana

Later today I’ll arrive home from the Rwandan experience. I am certain that I’ll find more and more reasons why this tremendous opportunity came my way. I am certain that I will tell the stories I’ve learned as a part of a Mental Health and Social Services Delegation from the United States.

One thing I do know: Citizens of America really have little idea just how wonderful a cultural climate we enjoy. Another thing I do know: The world’s inhabitants (75% of them having far less than we have available to us) are comfortable in their comfort zones, needing so little of what we think of as essential.

In my non-employment hours I will be struggling with this theme: “A World Where Sharing By All Means Scarcity For None.” I think I will take some quiet time these next days and discover what is next as I enjoy being back home again in Indiana.
