It's not always easy...

Yesterday’s songs are stuck in my throat…

Today began just as last night ended - lacking in joy but not without tears. I longed for the familiar. I ached to wake up in my own bed in Canada. But alas, I found myself still in Africa. Even the birds were silent when I first awoke. Where was my joy, my hope?

Well, the good news is, today is not yet over. I did eventually hear the birds, and God has reminded me that he is trustworthy and will not let me be put to shame. Beautiful news, eh? It’s life giving really. But it's still not easy...

So, even though I am not overjoyed to be in Africa today, I can rejoice in another reason to lean on my God. I’ve tasted the joy and I know that it and my love for Africa will return. May my heart remain steadfast. Amen.
