sometimes i get all enthused about the idea of heading overseas and working for God.
i'm reading "Building for God in Papua New Guinea" by Arthur and Jean Kelshaw, who are members of my church. they went over in the 1950s to build an admin block for a hospital, and houses for missionaries, at the same time training locals with building apprenticeships.
yesterday i briefly saw part of a dvd where rick warren was outlining what he sees as the five major problems in the world: spiritual emptiness, selfish leadership, poverty, disease and lack of education. he then went on to outline his P.E.A.C.E Plan.
meanwhile, steve mentioned briefly on saturday night about how even just going and telling people that boiling water can help prevent many diseases would make a difference to countless lives.
anyway, i was just thinking about how much can be done, and how little it can take - if that makes sense?
but then, does it just stay an idea?
