He's Off...

Yes, Kurtis is on his way back to the States...

It was a busy busy busy day...

We packed and got things ready... and then we went out to lunch together... with Abby.

It was an American style restaurant and then went for milk shakes afterwards.

Abby took him on her scooter for one last ride around and we were in the car by 4:30, heading to the Taoyuan International Airport. One of his bags was overweight, so we took out one pair of shoes and some of his notes. Praise the Lord as they didn't weigh his carry ons. Those were 17 kilos! This kid does not travel light!

We drove home and there was a lot of traffic. We didn't get home until 7:20, the same time that his flight supposedly took off. But Kurtis did line me, saying that it was slightly delayed!

I had a fast dinner and Abby and I were off. She was going for a massage and I went to see friends who just bought their first house. They are the couple who have been renting from us.

Abby and I got home and we went for a quick run... It wasn't raining and she's trying to run 30 minutes for the next 21 days!

Daily Lovely Insight:
The night when Judas betrayed Jesus with a kiss... that servant of the high priest, Malchus, who got his ear cut off... and Jesus touched it and healed it. How his life was changed that night? Did he see Jesus as his healer? Did he go home, contemplating, about his encounter with the Son of God? And the next day when he saw Jesus on that cross, what was he thinking? "This man is innocent. This man healed me. This man is the ... " and would tears have welled up in his eyes, realizing that he went to arrest a man who came and sought him, who hung on that cross for him? And for the rest of his life, whenever he touched that ear, he would be reminded of the event of that night. I think he would have become a follower of Jesus! These are the things I'm thinking about as I read that today!

Seek Him First!
