So listen, Jesus, if this whole savior of the world thing doesn't work out...

7.1.09 (dated this way until I catch up)
First breast sighting, right off the bat. I’m sitting at my gate waiting to board my second flight, and I notice the back of the paper of the man across the aisle from me. Apparently, “Anne loves the Nature” and is showing it with a fully topless half page photograph article. Looking away gave rise to the realization that this was not some adult subscription, but the common daily newspaper. With everyone around me reading the frontside, the paper’s backside (and Anne’s FRONTside) was multiplied and right in my face. In the States, often my plan of action was merely to get away from the objectionable material, forgetting to take it to God and failing to surrender the matter to Him. This half method ‘seemingly worked enough’ that I wasn’t forced to take it to the next level, surrendering my circumstances over to God. What I realize is that there will be some situations in Europe where the objectionable material is not fully avoidable, and I will be thus forced to first and foremost take the matter to God and seek His guidance for how to navigate. Wait, what’s it Linda is always telling me? “Hooray, another chance to grow!”
