SIMPLE CHURCH

Today is Sunday, we are taking in all the beauty if this day. The weather here has been to good to be true. Everyday b/t 60-70 degrees and sunny - partly cloudy. The beauty is breath taking. Ouyr group is going to Cape Point today - it is one of the most Southern points in Africa. It is where the Indian Ocean and the Alantic Ocean meet. God's greatness is reaveal alot through the waters. The water is uncontrolable, powerful and beautiful. We will be worshiping on the beach tonight - Godknows wants to tell us about what God is teaching him - what powerful testimony to God when Godknows says over and over God is good. He tells everyone God is good. Godknows has nothing. Yet he pocesses so much - The knowledge of the love of Jesus Christ. Godknows has never been to Cape point so we count it an honor that he would go with us today. I was reading in Proverbs today 22:2 the rich and the poor have this in common - The Lord God is the Maker of us all. Such profound truth. TRying to figure out what to do with all we are seeing and seeking God on His direction. This is hard stuff to process. IT seems like there is always tension with being thankful for what God has blessed us with and not feeling guilty. I think that God like us living in that tension it makes us constantly seek after His will and His way for us. He has a specific calling on everyone. And it is up to each of us to listen to the call He has on our lives. I do know that God's heart is for the poor and the oppressed. We are seeing Jesus through the eyes of the children.

I apologize for no pictures my laptop doesnt work, so i buy minutes at a Cafe. So bear with my typing I feel like I am always typing against the clock. Praying your Sunday is blessed with rest and time with Jesus. WE love you all - keep praying. Thanks mom and dad and Curt Kim taylor sam and david for taking care of my dogs. I know it seems silly - but it really does mean a lot. There my boys. Again we love you.

Marcy - we stopped by your house last night to make sure everything was in tip-top shape for a showing that Dirk is doing tonight (and he wanted to make sure he knew what he was showing). Of course the dogs ran inside and Cooper took his spot under the table. :) They seem to be just fine, and I'm sure they loved that moment in the house!

Glad to hear that God is using your family in so many ways in Africa - so blessed to be a blessing. We're still praying everyday for you!

Shae (and Dirk)
