So, Benja had asked me to bing a Bible fro America for him. Earlier this week, I gave im and Peter the tow extra Bible I brought. When I did, nancy (the young orphanage mom) suggested that Peter and Benja share a Bible, so she could have the other. (it hadn’t occurred to me that she didn’t have one either.) LuAnn offered extra Bibles that Africa Connect brought to give away, so I have two Bibles to Nancy (one for her and one for the older kids at the home)… what a sweet gift it is that God let me be a part of getting Bibles to them!
You want to know what is beautiful? Little Esther has a great smile, and she holds my hand and she is getting food everyday and she is in baby class in preschool at Graceway/NEK/Neema (I can never get the name straight) (Esther almost died of malnutrition 2 years ago. Eva Joy and Caleb brought her to the hospital and saved her life) She is Beautiful.
So… last night, I fell asleep (…but wait there’s more), I woke up with a sore throat @ about 1:30AM, turned on a light, found a mosquito trapped IN my mosquito net, couldn’t seem to get rid of her or keep sight of her in the light (and my tiredness), gave up trying after a while, went outside to sue the “long drop” (deep pit toilet), noticed a giant (about 5 in leg span) spider at eye level (seemingly guarding the door), figured the “long drop” could wait till morning, went back inside, got in a different bed (with a different mosquito net)(this one without any malaria carrying mosquitos trapped inside), was exausted, couldn’t fall asleep, was really exhausted, really couldn’t fall asleep, finally fell asleep, woke up feeling refreshed and well rested, had some sweet time hanging out with God, had chai, chapatti, and gatheri for breakfast in town…that night was a tad trying though
