Homesick

God's word reminds us that this world is not our home. Do you ever feel like a stranger...like an alien...like you're not sure where to park for a while? It's really a GOOD thing. I don't want to be settled/complacent. But why is it so hard sometimes? And how on earth do you explain it to someone?!! Maybe my blog will help you understand. I hope you enjoy.

How humbling...

We went to Buziga for Sis to do health teaching among some older ladies. I had taken Mom and June there in January too. This time, the ladies decided to show their gratitude to me for bringing "doctors" to teach them. When we arrived, they took me into the home and said, "Take off your shirt." I did...who am I to argue. They proceeded to dress me in this gomesi...it's the traditional dress of the Baganda women. And then, they presented me with about 10 gifts...crafts these extremely poor women had MADE for me! It was truly overwhelming! Posted by Picasa
