Crossing Cultures Devotional Memoir

Uncertainty

Travel plans so carefully made. Flights scheduled and booked.

Anticipating long-delayed reunions. After many covid19 restrictions. Requirements. Roadblocks.

Then, sudden uncertainty. Again. 

Everything is up in the air. 

Like the autumn leaves outside my window. Scattering in the wind. Landing who knows where.

hope

The one who speaks truth finds himself walled in. Weighed down. Worn out.

No hope. Only the crooked path. And a deep pit. Face in the gravel.

Affliction. With no end in sight.

This. When he’s fearlessly made known God’s ways. And wept over the judgment of a disobedient people.

Jeremiah laments.

Open door

Over the years. In various cultures. Conversations over tea build friendships. And open doors. 

Our exchange moves from common everyday themes to the topic most essential. 

And dearest to my heart. 

Jesus.
