Camping and the Rainy Season

So we're off to the YMCA camp again on Wednesday. I'm looking forward to it but it's again going to be stretch. Keiko and I began tonight checking my translation of my sermon for Sunday in Obiyama. I don't have much time to write right now, but I think that's what God's telling me. It's pretty simple and comes from Ephesians 5:15-16 "¹⁵Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, ¹⁶making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil."

That's all we can do. Our group read through Ecclesiastes 9-12 today and it was just a great reminder about how many times and how often we forget "what are we going to do with the stuff we're learning." We have two weeks left and I'm ready to go. It's rainy outside (the rainy season has finally arrived) but in our hearts we are setting apart Christ and rejoicing in Him.

Pray for strength, character and perseverance for our group and especially me as I speak on Sunday.
