I think my favorite part of the day is after dinner when I've finished washing all the dishes, sweeping, and wiping down the table and counters. When I go back to my room, get cozy in my comfortable pajamas, and settle down on the couch to journal and read a good book. In this time I'm able to unwind, relax, and reflect on the day's activities. This is also the time when I'm able to talk to my family or John on the phone. I suppose since I'm an introvert this is also the time when I get re-energized, even though I go to bed shortly after.
Today I had exactly three weeks until I return home to the States. The time has flown by... I'm trying to enjoy every moment of my final weeks. I'm also trying to finish the three books I'm currently borrowing from Marc and Stacy. I have a lot to learn, yet!
This stuck out to me as I was reading Thomas Hale's book, today: "Indeed, everything we do is spiritual work if it is done as unto the Lord. A.W. Tozer said, 'It is not what a man does that determines whether his work is sacred or secular, it is why he does it'" (p. 247).
