Day 21 - Jambo!

Day 21 - I know guys, sorry I missed 2 days ...something to do with a 53 hour hounery to Kenya at 39,000ft and no Internet connection.
So for the past few days I've been flying and then today - I met some of the heroes in my life. Four young guys leading Furaha Community Centre, Huruma slum, Kenya.
WOW - these guys ooze faith.
Its been a great few days:
Travelling with next folks; getting our 560 shoes through customs ...in fact getting them to arrive in Nairobi (which is often called NiRobby!)
And as that happened - prayers of Thanksgiving to God.

Intentional living for Jesus - seekijg faith to see what God is doing here and faith enough to take the next bold step ...purchase of 10 acres in Kenya to build safe houses.
As we listened to to guys sharing their vision and standing on the soil they see as where it could happen - is my faith strong enough. Forces you to your knees asking for more faith, knowing that it not about our volume of faith, but the level of trusting the One we are placing our faith in.
Our four heroes see God as big!
Do I?
Or ......am I too rational, too analytical, too wanting to be in control.
Africa, God are teaching me lesson again of faith and trust.
I guess my intentional living is being willing to be taught these lessons.

Unsure when I'll blog again ...but hopefully by then I will have a stronger faith because I've cleared clutter and found God clearer.

Jambo!
