Blog post #7.5


April 21st, 2013
On Sundays, all around the world, in all countries, in all languages, there are mothers arguing with their children about what to wear to church. Amen? At least it seems that way to me. After a small battle about clothes/appropriateness/flip flops, we were on our way to Umhlanga, looking for The Rock Christian Church. What a wave of refreshing grace, being a part of a large group, singing praise on a Sunday morning. Like water when you don’t know how thirsty you are. I was so thankful to be in that environment, soaking it in. One of the hardest parts of this journey is being cut off from my people. I know with grateful certainty that we are being held up in prayer by hundreds of people, some of whom I don’t even know. But it is really hard to not have casual conversation with other adults on a regular basis, let alone receive good, solid advice from other believers.
