So if you had to move and leave everyone you knew, with all your wordly possensions (fitting neatly into a dozen suitcases) and do it all in three weeks what would your priorities be?

Currently for me it is sleep. For me and especially my wife who has been woken up by our teething 10-month-old we really need to get some good nights of sleep. In the last six months as we waited for visa paperwork to clear we have been able to see most of out friends, be with those who needed some love and been able to be a encouragment to those around us. It truly been a good time. What have we seen or learned?
Hmmm.
Firstly, that God really does know better. We had wanted to go to a northern city in Mozambique but were told no by our authorities only for the country authorities to tell us we couldn't go there after months of waiting. We were worried about schooling options for our almost-5-year-old and in our new city there is a english speaking preschool! We wanted to be working with experienced missionaries and we will be. I wanted to work outside the classroom settng and i actually have no idea where i will work with. It is wide open, perfect!
Secondly, i can't do anything alone. If i had gone to africa a few months ago i would have gone with some sense of having the capabilities and knowledge to give. HA. What i know now is i can't do it. I have such little confidence...i have moved towards dependance on God. Whatever happens in Africa is all God. I is a really nice place to be.

So, forgive me for not wrting sooner, we've been busy.
I will write again soon!
