If you are seeing this post it means I have done my job and moved our IT Department on time and on schedule. Today will be moving day for the Containers over to the New East Side LSA. My Department now gets to participate fully in the move. Urah!
It is an exciting time in a sense as we will finally be on the East Side where allof the services and "comforts" are. This includes the Chapel and DFAC so that life for me will be more normal. I have missed the afternoon prayer and conversations with the Chaplin Assistants and the Wednesday night Bible Study. Church everyday has taken a back seat the last two months and it has taken its toll.
Life will get tougher, packed into the new tents, which will be just enough for us to fit at first. As time moves forward and more tents are built, we will then be able to spread out a bit within the tent. We will have only twenty four showers for four hundred people which will be fun, not even shower curtains as of yet. At least it is not bottle water showers which it very well could have been.
So if you see this email two days in a row it means that something went wrong in the planning or the plan and IT was not able to get up and running. Hopefully it is not that we dropped the container or something such as that. Electricians, HVAC and IT need to perform or it will not happen correctly.
Watching all of this, seeing all the efforts that have been made, the coordination and the planning of each group had me really think of the Glory of God. Here we struggle so much to create something new. We toil in the earth, sweat by the light of the sun, become aggrevated at the difficulties of such change. O the other hand, in one simple confession that Jesus is Lord and Savior, the Spirit dwell in our hearts and we begin to change. God has allowed us to be created new in one moment, through Faith. This is the miracle of God
So the prayer for the day is this, that everythingmoves ok. That my men and the others doing critical work remain safe. That by the second day all was good...
First time in Afghanistan as a civilian contractor under a one year contract. I have been brought here by God and intend to speak the Gospel of Christ however I can.
