Ever wondered what it’ s like living in a village deep in the heart of Africa?  We had the privilege of staying in such a village way out in the bush and it was a wonderful experience.

Imagine...

The sound of laughter and children at play,
the streets announcing the birth of a new day.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there

A new born baby taking the first breath,
not even knowing there's something like death.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there

A widow in mourning standing at a grave,
the fatherless wondering how to behave.

A very big city always alive,
where most of the people are busy to strife.

When we get so caught up in die patterns o this world, God sometimes need to issolate us in order to speak into our lives. 
What better place than Masaiti (meaning place of issolation) in Zambia.

Since the challenge to get from Pretoria to the FCE base in Masaiti, God's been teaching and showing me so much.  With the
focus on God and Rom.12v2, I've come to realise how easily we fall into the pattern of this world.  Our thinking patterns
become more and more worldly and then we try to fit God into this pattern as well.  We trust on our own insights, loosing
focus of Him.
