Well, I just put up my Web site about my trip to Sudan, and it's got links to this here blog, so I suppose that means I have to get back on the bloggin' wagon.. and not just ramble on and on about the finer points of sports.
It's a little after 6 a.m. right now and I just got home from work -- an early night, sort of! -- so I'm way too tuckered out to really tackle a nice blog about all things Africa.
I will say things are rough right now. Just rough all over. I'm working long hours, sleeping at weird times and trying to cram way too much into each and every day. But God is so good, and He's blessing me even through the trials of support raising (and ohhhh boy are there trials!) and trying to love people at work I really don't like being around. I've felt like I've been at that "something's gotta go" point for weeks now, but -- by God's grace -- I've never quite got there. He's blessed me with discipline and generally good health.
I'm meeting some really cool people as I'm trying to build my support team, so that's sweet. I'm encouraged by what God is doing and what He's showing me. This, and I haven't even left the country yet!
I long for more time in the Word with Him, just being still and letting Him be God. I guess that would be my biggest prayer request.
I'm reading "God is the Gospel" by John Piper -- I heart Piper -- and it's great. In fact, I'm going to get on reading that now.
