Be Content in All Things

Well, today is Friday and Sabbath is drawing nigh and is promising a good Sabbath rest. We have been busy this week with the going up of our first building. The carpentry and mechanic building is waiting on rafters which Bill from Kibidula will be here on Sunday to work on those and Jason will be here a couple days later with the roofing. Right now they are digging the footers for our second building which will house our cafeteria, kitchen and wash area. When you drive into the area you see the first building. You would have to be here to experience the excitement of seeing a building where there used to be nothing.

Also, this week I went down and connect our 2” pipes together, altered the water to go towards the dam which was recently built and to fix the settling tank to receive and send out water both into our 2” pipe and also into the overflow so that extra water will continue to flow. I prayed prior to working on it so that there would be no issues. The Lord came through and success was gained. An abundance of water was coming out the end of our 2” pipe by the time I got to i 600 meters later. I gave out a yell that the neighbors probably wondered what was going on. But again, you would have to be there through all the digging, measuring, laying down of pipes, etc. It was exciting to say the least.

My cold is for the most part over; just a little cough now and then. One of our cooks has it (which she had it before I did and never really got over it) and is out of commission. I guess a lot from Kibidula has had it also. Glad to be feeling better

The Lord has taught me this week through my studies (children of Israel going through the wilderness in Numbers) and my work that we need to be content and not complain where He has us. And it is easy to abide when blessings are received like we have this week, but we also need to be aware of the good even if it is hard to find. Keep looking up and He will be there for each of us.

Bye for now from Mago….
