Road Trip...

Sitting in the back of a truck, cloth covering my face to stop the dirt sticking to me, listening to music and getting my position for a long drive to Nampula. 

An hour goes by driving more into the bush.

I then look out.

All I see is beauty. Mountains, huge trees, mud huts, Mozambican ladies carrying water on the side of the road. Sun rising. The beauty of it all takes my breath back. All I can do in that moment is worship. Worship Him for revealing His artwork to me.

Then God looks at me, smiles and keeps looking at me.

Did you know while we are staring at God’s creation, God is staring at us and thinking the same thing? He is thinking, ‘wow my daughter is truly beautiful’ or ‘wow my Son is so strikingly handsome.’ That just blows me away. What a revelation! He loves us so much he thinks we are far more beautiful than a sunrise, sunset, shooting star, fish in the ocean.

‘He made everything glorious, so what does that make me?’ David Crowder.

You are His favourite!!

These last few weeks have been great! I know I always say that I have been busy but these last few weeks…busier than any others! J The new baby house is really coming along and should be ready in two months, so pray that this keeps going a fast as it is! I helped out with a lot more admin during a time, as help was really needed. But come this week I have passed it onto someone else who shall be doing this full time. I did enjoy doing the admin but missed the babies too much to keep doing it full time, and letting go of working in the baby house. Four of our babies had birthdays, so we have had many fun birthday parties. Lots of cake and balloons! We also felt it was time for two of our younger boys to go to pre-school. So was really exciting seeing their little faces as they went with all the others. They are now really thriving and loving being the big boys!

Below is a little video of photos for you all to enjoy. Please do keep in touch with what you are up to and any prayer requests!

Lots of love and prayers,

Ruth
