Welcome To The Jungle

Axl Rose keeps singing in my mind every time I try to imagine what my in-laws are doing in Africa. Last I heard, they were without Internet access.

Well, that's enough for me.

Camping? Yes. Snakes in the cabin? Yes. Observing Possums and Beavers in the yard? Yes.

No Internet? I have to draw the line somewhere.

Sometimes I sit here on the sofa watching HGTV or TLC wondering, "Hmmm....it is such and such time in Africa... wonder if they are hiking in the bush, swatting Tsetse flies or perhaps running for their lives because someone wore the wrong color and aggravated an elephant who in turn began a stampede...."

Or something like that.

Then I think of sweet Sophie and Shannon who are leaving for Africa in just a few days and they will have Internet access. Oh, the faith these two ladies must have.

So, could you please say a pray for them as they step out on faith and their love for Jesus? While you're at it, take a moment to read about the reason they are going.

God Bless you, ladies!

Not sure if it's faith or just plain crazy, but thanks for the prayers and linky love for the kids of Compassion!
