Sue and I left home around 6:15 a.m. to drive to Murfreesboro, Tennessee, for our quarterly board meeting which is tomorrow. En route we visited my 85 year old sister in Morristown, Tennessee. After the visit, I summarized the visit to the niece in this statement: "This visit was not uplifting." My sister, who is usually talkative and full of live was just the opposite. She only said a few words and dropped off to sleep. I can see a great difference from the last visit. She usually sings to us of her love for Jesus, but she listed to a mixed chorus of seniors from Alpha Baptist Church sing "Give Me the Old Time Religion" and other favorites. I know this fed my sister, Ruby, spiritually.
Now, about Kenya. We found out that not only are Martin's children with Pastor Andrew, but a number of others who fled their home in Eldoret. We wired funds to him to help with food and bedding.
Now I am tired after traveling most of the day by auto--500 miles. More and more I understand the meaning of "we have this treasure in earthen vessels." But praise God for new days and new energy. His mercies are new every morning! I need your prayers.
