They're Off!

A team of 6 people are on their way to the airport. Bill is still in the hospital and I, Roberta, am going to stay with him of course. At least physically we will be here, but the team will always be in our thoughts and prayers over the next 10 days. God's ways are not our ways, but we know he is always right.

As the typhoon Megi swirls its way toward Hong Kong we add extra prayers, especially for safety for the airplane as it lands, though the typhoon isn't supposed to hit HK until Saturday and they land Friday. It promises to be a very wet week. We were warned to bring umbrellas, rain coats and water proof shoes. It's just part of life in that part of the world.

My special prayer is that the Holy Spirit will inspire them to be witnesses to those around them, whether on the plane, in the airports, and then to the teachers and students in HK. We are only acting as part of the body of Christ, his feet (we took a picture of our feet this morning), his voice, his hands. When you let God take over your actions, it's amazing what you will witness being done through you. God bless.
