Day 15 and 16 after TC Lam

I have dedicated these days to cleaning and clearing at home.

On Friday, I came to the end of my strength with trying to finish off the lounge room. I was glad to take a break, when the phone rang. Rhonda asked what people could do down south... send money or clothes? I replied, "just someone to help with cleaning my lounge room?" Well that seemed such a selfish and minor request to what is needed, but the prayers of my friend envigorated me to get the job finished.

THANKYOU LORD for the prayers of others and YOUR strength and power, when I come to the end of our own!

While waiting for the team of woodchippers, I have been reclaiming my yard. The grassy area of the back yard seemed a 'simple task', with just tree debris needing to be removed. Kaye gave a finishing touch with the lawnmower. However, the front and side gardens are huge.  In order to catch the coolness of the day, I am starting in the garden at 6.30am. On Saturday, Kaye joined me at 7.30am, and Djawuṯ arrived later with a chainsaw! The efforts were remarkable before the heat set in at 10am. Kaye's words of wisdom this morning: "We are not in a sprint, but a marathon here!"

THANKYOU LORD that we can accomplish one task at a time with your help and the help of each other.
