This was and is filled with reality. In early September, '03, I knew I was to go to Soroti at whatever time the Lord would have me hit the airplane. Immediately, Dave and I both thought I would be murdered over there. At the airport, November 12, '03, Dave and I walked for about an hour, and hugged and kissed. We truly weren't sure if we'd be together again. The plan was that Dave would be there in 2-1/2 months, because he'd be off work and could come to Uganda. Truly hoped I'd be there and alive. Miraculously, I was not murdered or beaten by LRA. However, a couple weeks before Dave arrived in the Kampala area, I had an extra amount of malaria and had serious post-traumatic stress.
God used me to reach out and touch kids and adults and pastors. It was truly an amazing time. So that's why that Word is correct. It was a HUGE blessing!
BTW, even today I truly try to "do what the Lord wants me to do". He is a blessing and a protector. I can hardly NOT think of Him all day--- I DO think of Him all day and even when I'm sleeping.
