If it’s not one thing…
Good news, the water tank was filled yesterday! Which meant I took a very nice shower instead of "bucket bathing", yeah! Bad news, the electricity is out today - meaning no electricity to pump the water, boo. Hopefully the electricity will be back on by this...
God is able!
Roofing continues and is just about finished. It certainly has been a test of patience - let me give you a brief overview of something that recently happened: Boards were bought for the veranda - 14' for the longer section and 10' for the shorter section. Instead of...
Stop it!
Oh how easy it is for me to get into a little pity party when internet is touchy, electricity comes and goes at will and water (at the moment) is not flowing. It's a day when I continually have to remind myself of what I DO have. Father God I give you today with all...
Fleeting
That's the situation with our water lately....fleeting. The person who supplies our water had an issue (no need to go into that) and the water stopped flowing last Wednesday. Luckily we had a few 10 liter bottles (it's what we use for drinking) so we were able to...

Well begins
"Then Moses raised his arm and struck the rock twice with his staff. Water gushed out, and the community and their livestock drank." Exodus 20:11 Ok we don't have Moses, we have Ken. The rock is struck much more than twice, probably going to be blasted a few times...
IS, not may be
Reading my devotional the other day something hit me (no not the "heavenly body" that hit nearby recently)...and not necessarily a truth revealed but more like a truth emphasized or clarified. "My grace is sufficient for you..." I've heard this statement from others...
Meeting was a success!
I must admit I was a bit worried about the meeting (held last Tuesday) with the secondary students. Saved By God's Grace implemented a new policy in Term 1 of the 2011 school year stating if a student received a D+ or lower for 2 consecutive terms they could no...
