Take a deep breath of Kenya, and your senses highten. The people are a integrated part of this land, constantly busy day and night. The arrival in Maasailand was truly breathtaking... In isolation we where able to appreciate the full measure of the creation. Even with the wildest expectation of what the Maasai would be like, we were still amazed. We arrived at night after induring the taxi for 160km from Narok at a village with the name of Olkoroi between the Maasai Mara and Kilimanjaro. The near death experience of getting to Maasailand was an expedition on its...

Our arrival into India was ubrupt and crazy, chaos was an understatement. Animals, tuk-tuks, trucks, cars and crowds scattered everywhere. New Delhi is a bee hive of hasslers, vehicles and markets - all trying to promote the best price. Just as ubrupt was the 'Dehli belly' many of the guys suffered from during this time.

Scooters swarm back and forth, uncautionary...
What an adventure! All Glory to God. We trusted Him and we where blown completely away by his goodness with this Luke 10 Faith Journey for 10 days. The thought came to me to lay everything bare, to pour out my heart to the Lord in worship and prays until we had an answer. I suddenly had a desire to delve into the Word, a couple of days passed waiting apon the Lord at Changi Airport in Singapore. I didn't know if God was speaking or not during this time, i looked for scripture to confirm where to go...
I dont write poetry, but when i do... not the best at writing. Moments of inspiration dont come alot so bare with me. All of this aside this is a piece of heart i wish to share. Wrote this on the way Fiji. Here we go... Night turns and tosses as a restless sea in pursuit nowhere Deep blue too deep black, into the unknown He plunges to fill up the void of light. Night just couldn't decide wether to seize the Day or see what Day may hold. Something about him so luring and joyful, O how...
