Rwanda 2010 Day 2

The night was short but good, it was so good to get to know Mike and Sidney a bit more that morning. We were beginning to see more and more that this trip was ordained by God. It just made us more excited about what He was going to do in and through us when we arrived in Rwanda.

We seen God allow us to get through airport security with great ease, to Him be the glory. It was 11:00 AM and we were all aboard the Ethiopian Air lines and ready for lift off. We were about to take off on the longest, tiring airplane trip of our lives.

What I didn't realize was that we were going to be landing in Rome, yes I said Rome, one of the cities that the Apostle Paul had walked in. I was pretty excited until I found out we were not getting off the plane and it would be totally dark the whole time we were there. But at least we can say we have been in Rome.

Then in another 5-7 hours we landed again in Abba De sis Ethiopia, then a small hop over into Uganda and then to Rwanda. We had made it and we were seeing a very beautiful land that God had made, and were about to meet a beautiful people also that God had made. We were now very excited to meet the Rwandan team.

On this day God gave me a poem as our plane had been delayed for a bit. So here it is

DELAYED

Has the return of our Lord been delayed
In no way has it been
Our Lord is always on time, His time
He will return as He said He would.

If it seems that His return has been delayed
It is because He want us to draw nearer to Him
He wants us to bring more people Home to Heaven with us
When He returns to take us there.

Delayed- Never, His love constrains Him
Every ear must hear and every eye see
The glory of our Lord and Savior
For He is returning in the sky for you and me

Jesus is coming again although
We don't know when that will be
If we are ready for His coming
We will go with Him. when He comes

He will come from on high for you and for me, if we are ready, waiting and watching.
As well as going about His business of Spreading the good news to the whole world.
