Folks are asking about my housing in Cameroon. Furnishings are sometimes changed when empty, but this is what the apartment waiting for me looked like last year. Thanks to a teacher who lived here last school year for photos!
Thank you God! Nice apartment. Electricity and running water most of the time. Looking forward to my new home.
I confess I am experiencing cultural shock right now - sheer lack of storage (small closet wardrobe, no dresser).
Scripture is speaking to my heart: “ … I
have learned to be content whatever
the circumstances. … I have learned
the secret of being content in any and every situation, …whether living in
plenty or in want. I can do all
this through him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:11-13 (NIV)
This reforming pack-rat has a LOT of work in the next week and half. I recognize I need to live simpler / less books and 'stuff'...that IS in process.
