Lessons learned in China #8

You never know who you will meet and when.

It may be dark and you may be in the woods on a path hiking towards your hostel but unsure of which path to take when the most nimble old man appears and guides you to the road and helps you find a taxi.

You may on a train with a sick friend when you meet a women with a baby who speaks very good English and is willing to do anything she can to help you.  And when it's 2AM and you don't speak the langauge and your friend probably has food poisoning, knowing that you can "dial a translator" means a lot to you.  It is even more incredible when you find out that she is also a Sister.  And you are reminded once again that there is One who helps us so much, sometimes in little ways, sometimes in big ways, and his power has no limits or borders.
