Okay, so I'm envious of Mike...and other ramblings |
Mike who? Mike Knight. On December 3rd he left his comfort zone here in the good old US of A to be a Distributed Pastor for Christ's Church Amherst...in Okahandja, Namibia - for a year. Well, hopefully a year. The way things work down there is that you can only stay less than 3 months (90 days?) without having the appropriate work visa. He is hoping that his visa comes through before his 3 months is up. Let's all pray that will happen.
I never got the chance to catch up with him before he left. I hope he knows that I wish him well and all the best and will be doing all that I can to meet up with him at some point during these next 12 months.
He has a blog that you really need to bookmark and check out often...maybe even share your thoughts on his posts or pictures. Mike's African Travel Blog
I can't believe it's about one month shy of a year since I've been back to Namibia. What I'm thinking about alot lately is that I was hoping to have gone back by now....but life here somehow got in the way. Often times I feel guilty for wanting to be there...instead of here. As I read Mike's blog, I'm there with him as he writes about people I know, places I've been, things that I have seen....
...in Africa.
That notion still literally blows my mind, as I sit here amidst all of the material things that I have been blessed with, but somehow feel I can do without. |

What Matters |
As you let God's design be worked out in you, you will see its impact in
others and for generations. |
Sometimes it's not about your ability to do something, but your availability
to do it that is more important. |

What Others Are Saying |
I should be much more afraid of being mistaken and then finding out that Christianity is true than of being
mistaken in believing it to be true. (Pascal)

God hasn't given you the events of your life to hold in your own hands. He is allowing you to watch them
