Second Sunday

Again we had devotions at 7.30am, then breakfast. Breakfast today was eggs - I decided on this day that there was no point me even walking down for breakfast as I would just have to walk back to base again. My stomach was feeling very rough to even the smell of eggs made me feel sick.

Once everyone had finished munching their eggs, we then went to church at 10am as we had to practice the drama we were going to do - this time it was the Table drama, and practice are singing as well.

I was in the drama again, with Nemiah, Nick and Steve. The Table drama is all about trying to move a table but not being able to and then it transpires that you can't do it on your own but need help. So the message of this is that you can't really do life on your own, you need people to help you, but most of all you need God to help you through. Well it made me realise this anyway, and God has certainly been there throughout this trip.




This feeling of God being with me, was made more obvious in the sermon which Emma Sha kindly translated for me, and I think God wanted me to hear it.

The sermon was based on Cain and Abel in Genesis 4 v 1-16. And the key phrase I got out of it was that 'God can repair everything'. I needed to hear that during my current frustrations of my sore leg etc.

God can repair everything, but we need to let him to this. What I did not realise at this point is that God was setting to repair me in more ways than one over the course of the next week.
