I am blessed to have lived in this country for nine years. Each year I gain more love for the people. I have traveled all over the country and shared the gospel with people who are hearing the good news for the first time. In the last of the 81 provinces I visited, I knew they had a food called Kilis Tava, so I went to their most famous restaurant. The owner and I got along very well. He graciously fed me and invited me to tour the city riding with him on his moped. He showed me historical sites and other food places. Leaving my new friend, I wandered around the city meeting people, and came to what I thought was a museum. I asked some people holding a business meeting, “Is this a museum?” “No”, they answered. “It is just a historical building but stay and eat with us.” I stayed and had the opportunity to share the Gospel. One of them had never seen a Bible before and was happy to receive the one I offered. Pray for the seeds planted when I travel and eat with local people.
