It happens between 4 and 5 times a week.  We fall into a conversation over breakfast that takes us further into God.  Sometimes it starts with a question.  Sometimes some news.  Just about anything can get us going.  Today we got to reminiscing over when Francis first came to us.  How difficult he found it to be, working for two missionaries who didn't mess around.  Couldn't count the number of times he ran to Guy with his problems with us.  And slowly he grew spiritually and slowly he began to understand what this new life in Christ was all about.  Now he is real tough on others around him.  He faithfully does what Papa Jim did with him.  And he tells them about Papa Jim.  Lets them understand why it has to be this way.

And Doris, she began recalling her first year with us.  The wonder of her landing the job.  And the difficulty in learning to conform to Christ.  But how well worth it all is now.

Jim told us that God is faithfully taking care of us, often in ways unknown to us.  That reminded Doris of the time her brother Romeo tried to get a ride on a moto.  Another guy came up at the same time and managed to get on the moto ahead of him.  He was pretty upset until he discovered that the moto had an accident and the passenger had been injured.  It happened just a scant distance from him.  Romeo could clearly see God looking out for him. 

So drop in anytime when we're eating breakfast.  We'll feed you, and you will probably get in on a lively and inspiring conversation.
