All I really wanted was to sit in awe of Him,

To look up when the sun went down as stars came filling in.

I thought if I under the sky could see His glory then

A humbled cry and worthy song from my heart would ascend.

I was 25 before I truly understood that God was not American. Two months later I boarded a plane to North Africa with Cafe 1040. I found Cafe 1040 while fasting in order to seek the Lord’s guidance on my next step of obedience and God providentially bringing me into the life of one of Cafe 1040’s staff.
