Ethiopia Has Made Me Appreciate God's Long Enduring History and Suffering

I am very grateful for the opportunity to be in Ethiopia. It has made me more appreciative of God’s long enduring history and suffering.

Ethiopia is a country bearing the burden of centuries yet with little insight.

This ancient Christian nation has grown moss over its churches which literally were built underground.

In some ways their light could not reach to the people turning and toiling the land above.

Yet now, though this history is coming to a bewildered and uneasy end, there is a great hope.

This week as we shared the Principle with native and foreigners in this ancient land, I felt indeed a living hope.

I felt Father smile.
