Life in swazi is slow. We don’t have much to do, apart from ministry, we only have 3 or 4 places for adventure days and taking public is an adventure of itself, so for me, I’m at the base a lot (and I know for my extroverted brothers and sisters it driving them crazy) but I don’t mind- it’s been the perfect place to get to know Jesus and His character. He’s been pulling out the hard things, like untangling a ball of knotted yard, and it just seems to keep coming, slow but steady. Realizing that living with 46 other people is hard, and preferences are hard and you haven’t forgiven yourself for things from the past, that’s really hard.
Swaziland, has been a place for new beginnings and fresh starts. It’s such a beautiful thing but that doesn’t mean it will always be easy, in fact it’s actually proving to be fairly hard. But through it all the Lord has been so patient and sweet to me. I didn’t realize that new beginnings sometimes bring up wounds from the past that haven’t fully healed, things that I’ve shoved down and put away because I thought I’d worked it out or simply because I didn’t want to deal with the tough stuff. But I’m ready now, not because of my own will but because I’m finally allowing Jesus to walk me through this. I would appreciate prayers during this process of growth and healing.
All my love,
