I will never forget this day. I may live for many years and hope to eventually get to be in heaven. This was one of the most incredible moments in my life. As I have come to know several years later, this was heaven on earth. His Kingdom cam crashing through into my heart. Pictures to follow.
May 16th, Host Family Number 2; 10:16
Moving early as I said fairwell to Rebecca (host family daughter) and headed up to the Bongju mountain for the second day in a row. We went to his temple this morning. As we arrived after a short trip upwards, there was much to be thankful for...
Undescribable here in words, there was a precense and a feeling that brought my heart forward and tears from my soul...the view, the temple, the feeling, peace was in the air...
This was the highlight of the day as there were many visits and many meals. We visited a hospital known for its Cancer research and treament, and what looked to be the most well run organization I have ever seen. Lunch was great, and for the first time on the trip they served some fried food which Kevin and I prompty dug into coaxing the waitress to bring more. There was much singing and drinking and eating...
Dinner was excellent as well and served in a different style and type of food than we had seen in the past few days...
At dinner, I do remember making these comments to our new Korea friends though our translator Chong Bo...
"...we may look different, our cultures are different, we eat differently, but more importantly, we are similar in heart, in mind, and throughout our soul..." I feel there is much truth here, and I am continually challenged I hope to see the truth unvailed...
