As I write this, French students at CTS (the seminary where we are staying in Brussels) are making us authentic crepes...YUM!! In the picture you can see them cooking them...look for the crepe in mid-air!
As we were sitting in chapel tonight I came across a verse in the Bible that really stood out to me. In James 2:1-4, it talks about making "partialities" between the rich man and the poor man and treating people differently based on how they look. This really touched me because it is so true about the culture that we are going to be in. People are judged and looked down upon based on their appearance. For example, the Romas or gypsies. This absolutely breaks my heart, because I am a firm believer that everyone is important and everyone has a story to tell.
I share all this to say: please pray for us as we get ready to leave for Romania. Pray that we would see people in the way that our God sees them...as His beautiful children, worthy of and craving love. Pray that we would be slow to judge and quick to love.
P.S. The crepe was AMAZING!!!!!
