Finding fulfillment

Over winter break, I had the opportunity to travel to East Asia to talk to college students about the true meaning of Christmas.

This is the second time God has led me overseas. One thing I really felt him showing me is that people all around the world are the same. People everywhere are searching for fulfillment. And just like in America, most people overseas are looking for it in the wrong places.

We who know God are so blessed to know where true fulfillment lies. In America, we are even more blessed to have easy access to God’s word.

God used my experience during winter break to remind me the whole world needs him just as much as I did and not to not take for granted the blessings he has given me as an American.

Jonathan Roman, a student at the University of Texas at El Paso, served with Go Now Missions in East Asia.
