One thing I have mentioned in classes is that the reason we are having such an influx of immigration is because we Americans are not performing the jobs that others so willingly accept. How can we fault others for working hard to make ends meet? Earning a salary of $30/month is a true act of faith. The luxeries that people go without just to put food on the table is a foreign concept to us Americans, but not to many other countries out there. What a humbling experience to see how much we have and never think twice about: electricity only in the evenings, not being able to drive wherever we choose, not having instant health care- simply humbling. We are keeping you in our prayers, and pray that needs will be met- for both you and the work you are doing in Liberia. Keep giving your blessings and God will reward you so much more than your cup that already floweth over.
