wow! I have ignored everything that has to do with blogging for almost a month!
I have been busy doing everything and nothing. You know, when you're trying to do a bit of everything and nothing seems to get accomplished. Well, maybe there were accomplishments but not in the things that I have set out to do.
I feel so awful for something that happened a few days ago. On the eve of his birthday, my 8-year old nephew called me to make good of my promise that I will be his birthday celebrant. I did promised a month ago that I would bake or at least buy his cake. I even told him that he should pray that the Lord will provide for his birthday! ... so my nephew called me, and I was kind of out of town that day and I was not able to do as I have promised and it broke his little heart. His dad texted me saying that he refused to speak to them; and just sat there with his hands cupping his chin after he talked to me on the phone. Poor Giel! And now, he's sick with mumps. Bad auntie!
Two weeks ago also, my hubs and I fell off his motorbike. It was nothing major, just a few scrapes and bruises. It did tear my old surgical scars though and that got me a bit scared but oh well! We're alive!
Anyway, Bong and I, Jean and Sarah are flying to Zamboanga next Monday and won't be back until the 29th. That's not gonna be a vacation... it's gonna be a heavy mind and mouth work! Please remember us in your prayers as we conduct a Writing and Editing and Basic Biblical Exegesis workshop to Bong's people, the Southern Subanen.
I praise and thank our God for opportunities to serve Him like this.
