The last couple of days have been one big blessing from our heavenly Father....the people He chose to bless us with.......a normal Thai family.
Sitting at the Phuket bus station at 3:40 in the morning wa
iting for our lift, we the Baby Blue Team (Tjaart, Tiaan, Herman, Marcel and Tobi) would never have guessed what the Lord had in store for us over the next 5 days.
After settling into our new home which is a beauty salon in the making, we decided to take a nap till the afternoon as we were
extremely tired after 2 days of train and bus rides. The next 4 days were filled with 3 traditional Thai meals a day, going to the most amazing beaches and one entire day of shopping with the family which by now had become like a mother, father and sisters to me.
On Saturday they surprised us with a boat cruise to Phi-Phi Island which included snorkelling at long beach and a buffet meal. This has been one of the most amazing things that I have ever done. With sandy white beaches, calm blue water and palm trees in the background.
We were so blessed by them
and I thank the Lord for the time of rest He gave us before we move on to Phang-Nga where we are going to help build houses for the next three weeks.
Thank you for the love and support
Marcel
