experiences=healing

we are broken. we are hurting. we need love we need comfort. this is what the nepali people were screaming with there eyes only a few months ago. and as i continue thinking back to those eyes... the big, desperate, sad looking eyes... i think about the amazingly fun times i had... like camera fights with Katie and dancing in the rain with Sophie, and laughing over absolutely nothing with Jini... and i think of the heartbreaking, sad times... times like when Hannah and I cried for a half hour over things we couldnt change, when i would look into the eyes of the desperate children and skinny mothers, and the times when we went to temples and saw real idolatry ... i remember those times. the times when God broke my heart so that he could heal it. and it reminds me that God was always looking out for me and that he wants me to have good experiences so that he can laugh with me, and hard experiences so he can hold me and help me through it. Im thankful that God brought me through these times... and that he has always been my friend :)
