Two Years


Today marks the two year anniversary of our arrival in Seoul.  The incredibly anxious feelings we had when we landed  at Incheon International Airport died down long ago.  The adjustments to the new culture weren't as shocking or surprising as we thought they might be.   That doesn't mean, however, that the past two years didn't challenge us greatly and help us to grow in new ways.  This experience has forever impacted our values, ideals, and habits.

If we had to choose a feeling that has described the past two years, it would be thankful.  This experience has been second to none.  God has truly blessed us here, and we are forever grateful.

Today, more than ever, we appreciate this verse from our first post:

Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
- 1 Thessalonians 5:18
