Opportunities and decisions

What a thought! Exodus 13, the chapter that spells God's way of teaching us about life! The Israelites found themselves in a "dead end street" and started to complain... bitterly. They thought they had a "problem" and were worried about how to solve it. Go'd message was: "I lead you here to show you that when I am in charge, there are no problems, only opportunities to make the right decisions." A powerful message for us today. We had a lovely consecration service in the gym for the graduates. Tomorrow is the giving out of the diplomas. This kind of weather, we are having, demands a slow and deliberate stroll in some unspoiled area. The "eagle has landed" and Ita will not miss me that much during my visit to Poland. The ET has returned and is settling down to pursuing his short and long term plans. Since the children of my students are graduating , I have a chance to meet not only my students but also their parents. A veritable feast...socially and emotionally. So to quote my favorite "gospel in a nutshell": The Lord is good, a stronghold in the time of trouble, and He knows them that trust in Him. Till later.
