some random stuff and read through your Bible this year

 hey y'all! 2008 is going fine. It was really sunny all day long Monday. It didn't rain for like 25 hours (exceept for a tiny sprinkle for like 3 minutes)! I've come to like the rain a lot. They say the rain is really bad and extreme this year, but I like it. It doesn't rain like this back home.

Things are pretty interesting with Sarah here now. The little kids all love her (and so does Micah). We're getting along pretty well too. I don't get to hang out with Micah so much, which kinda stinks, but I guess it's okay. We still sit around and goof off sometimes.

Also, my computer has crashed. I'm just not having too much sucess with that evil piece of technology. First, it got ran over and I couldn't use it for almost a month. Now i got the screen fixed, and it crashed. The terrible thing is that just yesterday i was thinking how I need to back it up on an external hard drive, just in case it decides to act weird. But when I started it up, it said my account doesn't exist on my computer. So, I don't have anything right now. I'm hoping a brilliant computer guy (from America) can maybe fix it, or at least get me some of my stuff.

God is good to me. I've really been enjoying looking for lessons in my daily Bible reading. God has also given me a couple verses for this year (that i'll have to share in another note). Dad has decided that at our church this year will be the year that we focus on getting to know the Bible. So he's teaching a class on it right now (all the Saturdays in January) and he's also challenging people to read their Bibles the whole way through this year. It's actually pretty simple. You can get a chart from the Gidions web site and you just have to read like 4 or 5 chapters a day and you'll read through the whole Bible in a year. So, I just wanted to meantion that to whoever reads this and encourage you read through the Bible this year. It sounds like a big accomplishment, but doing a little bit at a time and checking of the boxes makes it pretty easy.

peace

it's even easier if you have a bible called the One Year Bible.. it breaks it down so that you read a little bit of old, new, psalms, and proverbs each day.. and by the end of the year you've read it all. They have quite a few translations out as well. Reading through it this year is one of my goals, has been each year for a while, but this year I've found more motivation than past years.. so here's to reading through the whole bible in a year.. whoop.

PS. where are you guys at in Africa? I plan to go with my dad and a couple others to meet with some families/tribe leaders etc.. We're going to be in Benin.. I was just curious where you all are set up.

Take care
