In the year we have had some up, down, left and right moments.
I will share a few with you...
If you are lonely a tree seems to be "someone" that you can open your heart to
If this does not work there is always a Johan(n) to fill the gap :)
Most of the time we struggle with finances and we have to look at cleaver ideas like ensuring we get the eggs that comes from chickens that date stamp their eggs
Sometimes we are luck and get some veriety in our meal
ooo even better we sometimes get PAP in CHINA
another low is when we walk for a day and a half and discover that we could basically have crossed the river and would be at the same place
However praying always works and getting lifts on a mountain pass at...
means that we have to hold on for dear live.
China means short people and at some places it is easier to lets people know than to up the door height
even me as one of the shorties seems to have a problem
So i made a plan, I wrote the 10 commandments to tell them what God wants them to do :)
Sometimes the sick thing hits us and others need to help
but still we have the energy to play hours with children
We drive in overfull busses where people have to sit on the roof
and where we have to drive half body out of the bus to get a "haircut" :)
We visit cold places and it seems to just get cold at some places
Mt Sinai proved to be even colder at -4
and then getting to Mt Everest we found out base camp is -22
so what do you do to worm up - you exersize
We sometime seem to be on top of the world...
touching the sun and the snow at the same time
Going to the lowest places on earth
and getting very high up (about half way up Mt Everest)
But most of all we strive to find the own thing we all long for - Jesus
And knowing his cross being planted around the world...
