White for the harvest






We've gotten the chance to see many different culturally relevant sites in Qingdao. We were able to visit a temple the other day and see some people participating in Buddhist rituals. It struck me how mankind struggles for purpose and meaning to life...and will find solace even in man-made answers. There are so many people here crying out for answers to these questions, and for love and peace in their lives. It seems clear to me that the field is white for the harvest, and that we should be asking, teaching, and sending workers to come help bring it in.

We are scheduled to return next week. We've enjoyed our time here, and it will be bittersweet to come back to Texas when it means leaving so many we've come to love.
