And You Wonder Who You Are, Under Who You Are
That thought is part of the lyrics from one of the songs on Peter Mayer's latest compilation, Still in one Peace. The song is called Waterfall. As I prepare to return to Namibia, after a year, I've been trying to remember how it is I felt after I returned home last time. I say "try to remember" because I find I no longer feel as I felt for those first days, weeks or months of understanding where I had been and why. Peter's thoughts about wondering who you are, under who you sort of brings me back to those days after returning home, trying to sort things out.

While in Namibia, I was different. I was different because my environment was different. For two weeks (or so) I had stepped out of my world. My daily routine that I had become accustomed to, didn't exist there.

As I return, I wonder again how things will be, who will I be under who I am? What will coming home be like after, once again, stepping out of my world here, and this time for three weeks?

What Matters

As you let God's design be worked out in you, you will see its impact in others and for generations.

Sometimes it's not about your ability to do something, but your availability to do it that is more important.
