Acostumbrandome (growing accustomed)


The more I leave Arequipa and come back I realize that I´m coming to love it. It makes me a little worried that I am because I know I will have to leave it! I had just been learning about not making this world my home. I know it is normal to settle into a place and I´m glad am doing that! I was able to talk with a couple who had been traveling around the world for the last 6 months. I really felt bad for them and how much I would long for home at this point of their trip ( they only have a week or so left). They seemed to be searching and there are some crazy ideas especially with all the mysteries of the Incan people! I shared with them the comfort that I feel seeing the beautiful creation and knowing God is caring for it all and he cares for me and wants a relationship. We also talked about injustice that they had seen in the church and elsewhere. I´m praying for these two and others who come looking for meaning.
