Getting ready to leave!

Time flies, and I've enjoyed my time here in Norway. Of course I've not stayed here all the time :) that would have been a miracle!!!
Went to visit some friends in Northern Ireland, where we had a grand time as they say. It was good cing them all again. Good to have fellowship with them, which is so needed.
Some of the things that I've realized while being here in Norway this time, is the necessity of staying in contact with people that are like minded - to have a relationship with them. Just as important it is to have a relationship with our Father. Staying grounded in this Word, spending time with Him, set time aside to be with Him and nobody else. He is a jealous God, and He’s serious about it.
God so put us on the spot sometimes; this is one of the times where He did put me on the spot. I was sitting on the bus coming from Oslo. A lady sat next to me with a knee problem. While talking with her, I wanted to pray for her – but ….. didn’t. She left the seat next to me to sit somewhere else. Then I had to tell God I was sorry that it hadn’t been done, and asked for a second chance…. Guess what – she came back… didn’t take me long to ask if I could pray for her.

And now, it’s time to move again. The ticket is booked, and I’m leaving for Africa on the 3rd of September. The destination is Uganda, possibly Sudan.

The one and only thing that I want, is to be with Jesus – I’m not going anywhere unless He’s with me. Sounds pretty basic, but so important.
