A lot has changed in the last couple of months. As many of you know I have been relocated. I’m now living in Tanga, Tanzania. It’s about 5 hours North of Dar es Salaam.
Most of you know me well enough to know I’m a planner. I like to know what’s going on. But the irony is our God thoroughly enjoys shaking things up a bit, and allowing just enough chaos to prove his sovereign control. Like a resounding melody I hear him singing over me… just enjoy the journey. Let go of the past… it’s dealt with. Don’t worry about the future… it’s secured. Just live in the here and now, enjoying the freedom I’ve given you. I’m finally beginning to realize, it’s more about the journey then it is the actual goal.
My productivity so far here in Tanga town…
1. Learned to make my own granola and chapati’s.
2. Made friends from New Zealand, Norway, and Finland
3. Went to an African circus (quite impressive, might I add)
4. Went sailing and island exploring. (got caught in strong winds; thought we may end up staying the night on the “deserted” island.)
5. Finished Language school and Taught my first class in Swahili
6. Shared my testimony and a Bible story with some Muslim friends in Swahili
“The Lord has promised good to us…”
“… and he will do it.”
