HAPPINESS HIS CHARTER ;by; mark bardwell and todd myatt flies are buzzing all over the place; there is a strong smell of animals; everything is filthy; and it is extremely hot. some people have the most unusual ideas of what it is like to be a missionary, envisioning pictures of half starving people; snakes hanging from the trees; thick, dense jungles; mud huts; and mosquito nets. this hardly describes the general conception of a vacation such as a fishing or skiing trip to crystal-clear lake tahoe. missionary life is quite a contrast to the peaceful, relaxing life in a bubble made of rules, many missionaries find themselves in comparatively dis- agreeable surroundings, one often asks, why do people leave a country like the united states to live in such an uncomfortable environment? why leave a perfect life, one that most of the world longs for, to clean ugly wounds, endure life-threatening situations, and to survive on less than a substantial income? the general thought is that most missionaries do it out of guilt because they know Christ ' s great commission is to go into all of the world and preach the gospel, however, generally it is quite the other way around, believe it or not, most missionaries enjoy what they are doing, nothing could give them more joy than serving God and others on the mission field. life in the bubble is satisfying . . . sometimes, but in reality that satisfaction one gets in the bubble is nothing compared to the joy and fulfillment that God can give to those who are willing to give up their present comfort to serve him. admittedly there are many ways to serve others than through foreign mission work. God obviously has not called everyone to go overseas because there is still a need for workers here at home. it is very unlikely that a christian can ever be fully satisfied by shutting himself up in a bubble of rules, separated entirely from the world outside, he must break out into the world and do what God has called him to. without bursting that bubble he can never really grow, be satisfied as a christian, or experience all the joy that God had planned for him. - t:F 12
