Lamentations 1-2;Obadiah; Rev. 14

The trip to South Africa will be IN the village.
I am frightened and excited at the same time.
I am praying to just DIVE IN and be a part of all of it from the beginning.
The best advice I received was to do just that...to not be intimidated and wait...to simply jump into loving the people of Buhkwini the moment we arrive.....
Please pray for me to BE responsively obedient.....
I am praying to have Your eyes and to not shrink back from what I see....from the suffering....from the need.....
