(A short post tonight – it’s been a crazy few days.)
Somehow, opportunities arose this week for me to speak with four missionaries. Three current and one former.
These four conversations had some things in common:
- None descended into small talk.
- Each was longer than my normal day to day conversations. (The longest was several hours.)
- If time had allowed, all could have gone much longer.
- Each wrestled a bit with how to recognize God’s will and the leading of the Holy Spirit.
- Any discussion of other people was done with nothing but compassion.
- Each challenged me and stoked a desire to go deeper into my own experience of faith.
- And finally, each gave me hope.
Maybe I should make this a regular habit!
