Humble Lesotho

Lesotho.
WOW.

I cannot begin to tell you how beautiful this trip was.
Having seen God and experienced His awesomeness in so many other cultures.
He was still prepared to amaze me.

Jacques & I took this journey as a step in the direction of His calling for our Life as a couple.
It spoke!
Boy, did it speak!

Nothing about this trip went according to plan.
If you had an eye for organisation this is what would make you go blind.

Fortunately for us we believe in a God who created Man out of dirt.
Something out of nothing.






































God Lives in Africa.

Peculiar Children.






So I've asked them to water the daisy plant that I have neglected.
All I hear is giggle, giggle, screech , bubble, laughter....
Its AWESOME.





I don't if this will ever end.
Loving.
For the sake of it.
For the fun of it.
For the seriousness of it.





I sometimes ask.
Is it a bad thing to be real with them?!?
I tell them there is no Easter Bunny.
Tooth Mouse.Santa...
Am I bad.





 I tell them there is love.
A big hole...
with love in it.



I tell them there is pain and suffering.
Hate and poverty.
Death and slavery.
Poverty and war.

I tell them that they are one day going to be teased.
For being good people.
I tell them to make friends with rejected people.
I tell them that Jesus would probably sit
with the naughtiest Kids.

I tell them to be Peculiar.

Because He Holds the Whole World in His Hands.
No Matter What.
