What a world of travelers we're becoming. It's not uncommon these days to see people from England, Indonesia, Nigeria, the United States, Japan, and all corners of the world mingling in each other's airports. How easily we take to the skies—as if we really did have wings!
Yet the challenge of traveling is far more than putting up with the inconveniences caused by so many people on the move. The challenge lies in learning to have a love for humanity that reaches past national and racial barriers as well as cultural differences and finds the basic unity that is characteristic of God's man. Especially is this love needed when we are traveling in a country other than our own. The traveler who understands something of God's love embracing all peoples has the grand opportunity to be mankind's friend—an exponent of peace in the world.
Travelers are not always looked upon kindly by the citizens of other countries, so sometimes their own experience is anything but enjoyable. Spiritual vision is needed to see through mankind's differences and recognize those spiritual qualities of thought that are actually inherent in everyone.
