Seeing as my husband and I have taken to traveling so early into our marriage, I decided it would be best to start writing about our life, and where we are headed!
So...here we are in a little place called Penang, Malaysia, staying with the Perkin's family and soaking up some South East Asian sunshine! Josh picked us up early Saturday night and we stepped out of the airport into a shower of rain. It was crazy!! I really wish I brought some rain boots here because my goodness, you get soaked! The people here are so nice, even though they don't have any idea what we are saying. We are adjusting to the time change, although we find ourselves waking up at 2am ready to go. Our bodies have not yet adjusted to the 15 hour time change.
We see many opportunities to shine the light of Christ to everyone around us. The main religion here is Muslim and there is a Mosque almost on every corner, along with some Hindu temples. We pray we can be used by God in this place, where religion takes on the form of rules and rituals. I so wish these beautiful people understood, that the true God doesn't need strict regulations and rules to connect with Him, but rather a loving relationship.
Well, we are quite enjoying our time here and we are looking foreword to the many adventures coming our way. God sure has a plan for our life, we have yet to have a "settled down" feel to our life. Who knows? Maybe we never will!
