3 days
August 30, 2013
Just 3 days left! Couldn't sleep, thinking about my list of things yet to do.
Went to Austin Pulse singles group last night. Was able to show "Project Hope" video. Only 6 minutes, but such a powerful 6 minutes! Each time I see it, I am reminded that this is what I am to do when I go where the Lord wants me: South Africa. I am to just show up. To love people as Jesus did. He didn't ask the blind man how he became blind, He just touched him and healed him. It shouldn't matter how a person got HIV/AIDS. Did the doctor give him bad blood? Did he make a sinful choice? It shouldn't matter. He's sick. Would I think differently of him if he had cancer? I will just love him as Jesus did.
Wonderful video of Living Hope: http://livinghope.co.za/ . So many sick people. Living in poverty. Lord, prepare my heart!

My trunks are packed except for a few last-minute things. I have 2 "free" trunks plus carry on, but haven't weighed them yet. I'm allowed 50 pounds each, but when I fly from Johannesburg to Cape Town, I have only one free bag plus carry on. The other bag will cost me $25 to take...not bad. But, they can only be 44 pounds each on that leg of the journey. So must make sure they are the smaller amount to begin with.

New Blog
New venue...new blog. I posted some pictures of South Africa and of me and my daughter, Tina.
This will be where I blog about this new adventure on which the Lord is sending me. I need to do some creative work on this, but it's a start.
