Reality Check

Charlie talked to one of our (American) friends living in Kenya this morning. It didn't sound good. While I have been aware that things would need to settle down some, I am now feeling that it will really take change of large proportion for us to be able to return at the end of March. The way things are today, we would not be driving up country from Nairobi. He says the guest house and hotels in Nairobi are already full. Several of our colleagues have moved to town away from their homes in the highlands outside Nairobi. Others who were in Kenya for a meeting were sent back to their homes in neighboring countries as the meeting was cancelled. While we are not hearing (or asking for) any official word, the signs are there. A lot needs to happen in 2 months in order for us to return. What does God have in store? I'm confessing a little anxiety as we seem to be stepping toward uncertainty. However, I am excitedly expectant because I know whatever it is will be for our good and His glory as long as we are faithful and obedient.
