Far from home but close to God
One night, While I was on a two-week service trip to a school in Kenya, I started to feel sick.
I went to bed with a stomachache, telling myself I would feel better in the morning. But a few hours after falling asleep, I woke up and had to run to the bathroom to throw up.
After being comforted by my roommate and switching hotel rooms, I still felt sick to my stomach. I didn’t even have a distraction from the pain since we were on the trip without our phones, and there was no TV in the hotel.
