So, one might wonder "what happened to the Smiths?" As we get closer to departure, I find that my head has stopped spinning momentarily and I have a renewed desire to share about Zambia and what the Lord has been doing in our lives.
First and foremost, huge thank yous are in order. To all who have contributed to the Lord's work in Zambia, thank you so much for blessing us with the opportunity to represent you in Africa. Your selfless giving is so encouraging, and we are thankful for the relationships we have with each of you.
Last night I had the opportunity to hang out with a good friend who told me he wanted to contribute to our trip. Needless to say I was thrilled. The conversation then turned to "so, what is Zambia like?" Realizing that not everyone rocks the Discovery channel as much as me, my next few posts will be purely about Zambia. God created Zambia with extreme beauty and finesse, but like all of creation, sin has fractured that balance. The aftermath of this fracture is what we are going to combat, all the while drinking in the magnitude of the Lord's creation.
My blogging bug is back, so be looking for upcoming posts in the next few days!
