The Aftermath, Blessings and Chocolate.

A. The Aftermath;
     The aftermath of this last month is hard to digest, I spent the last month preparing, going to and returning from Japan.

What do I do with what I saw? 
What did I learn?
How do I apply it to my life?
How do I tell others about it?


You can't even begin to describe what happened there, its beyond what you can imagine. My heart goes out to all those nameless faces, people I have never met. They lost everything and in some cases everyone!


B. Blessings;
     "I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive." Acts 20:35

We cant expect to be continually blessed without doing anything... It's like rewarding a child who never does anything. As I get older I understand more and more how a parents mind works. When their children do "good" things for them (or someone else), it pleases them and in that they want to bless their children. The Lord works in the same way with us. When we do things for others in a selfless way the Lord blesses us, in many different ways.



C. Chocolate;
     In the last month or two I have been craving chocolate like it is going out of style. Some might say this is no where out of the ordinary. But for me, IT IS! 
Most days the thought of an excessive amount of chocolate gives me a sugar high and makes me want to puke just thinking about it! 
After little research I have learned that, 
A. my body is lacking vitamin B 
     or
B. I have become addicted to chocolate like a heroin addict is addict to heroin, a caffeine addict is addicted to caffeine or like a pot head is addicted to marijuana.

I'm going to go with A :)
