The End is Near

As this trip to Arua, Uganda comes to an end there are many things I will miss and things I wont. I know the Lord has his reasons for everything and I have grown in my faith a great deal. I sit here wondering could I have done more, or have I been faithful to the call on my life. I know we can always question our ministry and wonder if we are being faithful to the Lord. At this point in my ministry I havent had any conversions, and I havent had anyone seem really interested in the Gospel. So in the worldly view I am unsuccessful, but in the Lords view I am faithful. I rest in that truth and feel I have planted many seeds into peoples lives here in Arua. Like I said there are some things I will miss like the students, the muslim men, the children, and the team I serve with. Things I wont miss cold showers, power outages, poor internet, bad food, and cultural clashes. I look forward to chicken nuggets, ice in my drinks, wearing shorts in public, and most of all seeing my family and friends.
