Today we are leaving behind our hearts. It's hard to fall in love and then leave. But It's a beautiful thing to fall in love in the first place. God has loved us more then we can imagine. Being in Rwanda... Loving on these orphans, has shown me just another small glimpse at how mighty the power of God's love is and His heart for orphans. Rwanda has rekindled my desire for adoption!! (I guess I should let James know this huh? lol) God has allowed me to witness firsthand how much love, hope, and a family can change the world for the fatherless.
We left Noel and headed back to the hotel for a quick change (no shower) and then to Lake Kivu for dinner. The resort and lake are a magnificent setting. We arrived just at sunset. God's timing is perfect, the sun setting landscape was breathtaking. We fellowshipped over a very nice dinner. Live music in the background. The singer sang several genres... Which led our dear friends, the Harper's, into a little Texas Two Steppin' as the band played country. That was a hoot.
Once back at the hotel, we packed up, then off to bed. Tomorrow we travel to Ethiopia.
Lord, break my heart for what breaks yours!
Thank you Lord, for sending OUR FAMILY!
Sid Harper & James
