Today I am in Prague, Czech Republic. For the past several years we have been answering the call of God to effectively do ministry in the western parts of this central Europe nation. The task of answering this call has been far more about faith and patience. I am here this weekend to see what, if any, the next page of this journal looks like.
The trip over was fine. I flew from Charlotte to Washington, then to Munich, and finally to Prague. The flights today from Munich to Prague were repeatedly delayed due to some weather in England. (Seems that the aircraft that we were scheduled to travel on from Munich to Prague was coming from England.) However, through it all God is in control. I had a wonderful conversation while on the delayed flight with a woman from Philadelphia.
As today I have written on buses, trains, trams, subways, and walked in the midst of a multitude of people, I have been once again reminded that people are looking for something that is real. As I watched school-aged kids cut up and rough-house I was reminded that they looked and acted just like our kids in America. There is a distant and far away look in the eyes of the people of central Europe which is, in many ways an indictment on the Church.
I trust that God has been going ahead of us in the preparation of both those who will be blessed by our ministry and those who will be clay in the potters hands, Please pray for our time together in Prague and ask God to make His will easily received.
