What now?

What do you do when you have a life changing experience and you are no longer the person you once were? How do you resume the life you once lived? Do you simply brush the experience off as a nice memory and acquiesce back to life as though it never happened? Would it be wrong not to make serious changes to the way I once lived in this prosperous land?

The answers to such questions still elude me. I do know that I am not the person I once was. Praise God!


How do I go back to my life expecting the standard of living I once was so comfortable with now knowing that most of the World does not have such blessings? I had always known the statistics and had the head knowledge of how lucky I am to be an American, but now its heart knowledge from personal experience. I have faces to tie now to such sobering statistics. Those facts now carry weight and burden my mind. I am thankful to be burdened with such knowledge and experiences. I can continue forward being grateful for all that I have and making the most to bless others with that which I have been given.

The questions haunt me, but I am grateful to be haunted. I will continue to seek the Lord and pray that He would show me how to move forward and address such questions. Praise God it's not all up to me.
