This is the last night in this house. Tomorrow we take a bus ride to a resort for the last three days of our conference. Right now that sounds pretty good to me! I'm tired. The "big guns" from our HQ in Orlando (who are our speakers) flew in to Fiji today and will meet us there.
I AM going to miss mealtimes together in this house, though. You can learn a lot about a person from "table talk" over the course of time. Tonight I learned that Don's (our regional director) talk on the armour of God, zeroing in on the belt of truth, really meant a lot to Eva. (Don gave many verses from Ephesians to demonstrate truth to cling to.) And Jeanette, Koli's wife, used farming illustrations during her devotional (which everyone thought was wonderful,) and I learned that Greg is from a cattle farm. His people live on a small island that belongs to PNG, and it has a river and grasslands...enough for 100 cows. When he was little he tried to ride all the animals: cows, pig, etc. He said he fell off, got hurt, then his parents found out and he got hurt some more!
Did you guess the lyrics of yesterday's song? "Yu strong blo mi taim mi wik" means, "You are my strength when I am weak."
(Tomorrow's blog should contain a surprise! Hold onto your hats!)
