Day 14

Journal Ephesians 5:15-21
Today is a travel day. Josep let me drive about 3 hours while he slept. Now, you should know that I am not a courteous or attentive driver to begin with- no apology mind you just stating a fact. As it turned out I only got in trouble once, OK twice. Once at a round about when for some reason the car next to me would not let me cut him off- how rude- he must have been French, and second when attempting to enter a motorway I found out that you actually stop rather than speed up to enter in front of the already moving traffic. I decided that those were dumb rules and did not apply to me. So in short none of it was my fault and Josep assured me of this as he got back into the drivers seat. Our first half was taken up with duties at the EXPO which was altogether a different experience than our previous days. We learned to be humble, deferring everything to our hosts, the Spaniard Christians who were putting on the exhibit and had been there since the opening and would be there until the end of August. It is hard to not be in charge after spending days in face to face encounters and gaining a sense of confidence about our mission. However, the Spaniards were courteous and allowed us to sit and pray for them and to fold pamphlets to be distributed. Again, humbling and yet healthy. We are amazed at what God has taught us so far. Some things we were expecting and many we had know way of knowing until we got here. I am in love with the men I have come with and would jump in front of a small train for any of them they are truly my brothers.
