Glory to God 2

Despite the name, this event happened before the other Glory to God post, i just remembered it.

Africa 2006.  Drove 12 hours with 26 people in a cramped bus trying to get into Congo from the Zambian border. Long story short, didnt happen.  So at 8 pm, we are 12 hours from home (so to speak)  and the car breaks down, twice.  Already, we were told that had the bus broken down in Congo, we would all be killed in a cruel and unusual way.  So time passes, we end up on the side of the road with the leaders trying to find a place for us to sleep the night.  Mind you its like 10 pm in a less densely populated area, not to mention the saftey factor.

Gods Solution:  3 Rooms, and exactly 22 matresses in an oasis in the desert – probably most beatiful place in Zambia.  Lets break that down.  3 rooms, one for Bishop Paul, one for Abouna Elisha and Tasoni Manal, and one for Abouna Anthony. So lets see, 26 minus 4, carry the 1, wait, that equals 22! Once again, this is where you can start laughing at the way God works.  The following morning, we woke up to the most bueatiful sunrise, 3 hours to spend time with God in quiet time, and a meal prepared for us.  One more time – most places in Zambia dont have running water.  I know there was more thats escaping me now, but you do the math.
