Transitions


   I moved to a new temporary place on Saturday and am now a bit out of the city of Hong Kong. It’s can seem like a jungle and is pretty sweet (there are monkeys.., and unfortunately large snakes as well). The family I lived with has been so generous and have even set me up with a road bike that I can use while I am there. I have been continually blown away by how generous people have been to give me this opportunity. From friends in the states to families here in Hong Kong, the support has been incredible and much needed. The transition has been difficult and the newness of Hong Kong wore out a bit and I was left missing friends.
   To be quite honest, I have had a very hard time being present here the past week. I spent much of my time dreaming how about life back in the US. This led to me being very unsatisfied and deeply questioning why I am here. I have been convicted that I need to be investing where I am regardless of how I feel. With lots of time to myself this past weekend the Lord was present in that time to convict but also remind of his love... And I got to road bike today which was my favorite thing I've done since I've been here.

Also here is a picture of my typical commute:
