You are in a work where you should be on the "field". I mean doing the stuff, laying water pipes, digging wells, taking care of the poor, sharing the good news and be the never get tired missionary. What am I doing here in the office hacking numbers in my computer to see how much money I spent with a feeling of I’m not really working. I have never been an office person. But this is part of what I have to do here to keep things organized and running. Doing the accounts shows me how much of our support goes into the ministry we do here.
When people ask me what I do I get somehow cornered. What am I doing? It is not just a job I have here. It’s more of a lifestyle. Work seems never to end. Perhaps it’s what people call vision. You see something and you go for it. Unfortunately you would maybe never embarked on the journey in the first place if you would have known what was waiting for you. But because it is a view, a vision you have of something in the future you go on trying to catch it.
Man I get carried away…… I have to get back to finish the accounting before I need to get a Lahu pastor and his wife to the hospital. They traveled 200 km. and will give me a call soon.
