wireless is detected

Rachel and I have for these last 5 months gone without internet at our temporary apartment. That has been the hardest thing I have done-even after moving overseas to 3 different countries. Finding tomatoes, getting into a church, learning to communicate can't hold a candle to not having the internet. Today in church the pastor ask us if we ate breakfast and then if we took a bath. Both of which Rachel and I did-although not always bathe at the lake :-}
He reminded us that most of the world is hungry and dirty. It made me realize how spoiled I am to the trappings of this world and how I really need to not be. It is hard and yes, I will have my internet for an entire week soon, but maybe God has taught me that not being totally connected is not a bad thing. I might want to be more connected to Him.... to bad we can't get a reading on when we are truly connected with God or maybe he just wants us to be more unconnected with the world......
