Favorite People

 

I love it when our "jobs" are a good fit for our personalities.  I think it brings the Lord joy, too, as He watches us.  Some of our work this week didn't feel at all like work as we got to meet some of our favorite people at the airport.

 



 

You can tell the kids were excited, too!  We've all been looking forward to Henk and Margreet's return to the Solomon Islands.  They have such servant hearts, and they ease the workload of our SITAG family so we can focus on other things.

 

 

This afternoon, our destination was the airport, but tonight, we will drive to the wharf to pick up Aaron.  He's finally on his way home!

 

 

Tomorrow, we get to go shopping for a few things to send out on a ship for a village team.  Even though none of these "jobs" are in our official job descriptions, we think they are a vital part of Bible translation.  And, the neat thing is, because God created us this way, it brings us joy to offer ourselves in service to our colleagues.

 

"Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God."  Ephesians 5:1-2
