My friend Laura wrote a post on her website today called “The Return“, detailing some thoughts on their return to Honduras. They spent a little over a month back here in the States raising money and awareness for their missions organization. A couple paragraphs caught my attention.

I want to take a moment to apologize to each and every person I have come into contact with through my life. This may sound odd, but I would like to ask your forgiveness for something. You see, I’ve spent time and energy, two things I don’t have in abundance and neither do you, on [...]

The girl was grounded by her father because she was told to stay off the Internet and she refused. Therefore, she was not allowed to [...]
