I'm going to do some stories from my summer. They may or may not be in order but I want to make sure that I share as much as I can.
On July 11th all of the Critters(the missionaries) took a day to go visit different areas of the city where people worship their gods. We learned about the Hindu, Buddhist, and Islam religions. Our first stop of the day was the hindu temple. One of the problems is that they make these temples so glorious and beautiful and they make their religion sound so easy. They have a million "gods" that all look the same to me but that's besides the point. The guy that was giving us the tour even knew the number of pieces and how they interlocked. He did talk about how they treat their "gods." They have a schedule for their feeding time, naps, bath time. Walking through the temple was so eary. These people are so blinded to the truth and it broke my heart that somehow their going to realize that their religion was a joke and none of the gods are real. The next stop was the Buddhist temple. One of the monks sat down with us and told us how the religion of Buddhism works. He questions the beliefs and we could all clearly see that he is searching for the truth. We also learned about the islam religion. I could make this blog all about their religion but all I have to say is they need the truth. The truth about the Lord Jesus Christ. One thing that I learned on that day was that they have such devotion for their gods. They have special times to talk to them and spend time with them and that's something that I slack on. I can talk to God anytime of the day, why don't I take advantage of that? I say that I get bored but reality I always have something to do. That's something that I've been working on, really being dedicated to have quiet time with my Lord Jesus Christ!
