My fan
The electricity that makes my fan go round and round
The amazing fellowship I am able to have with the other missionaries here
Walking on the beach at sunset, after having a cheap ice-cream
Being able to bless others
The little surprises that show up on my doorstep – for example:
~A suitcase full of goodies: 2% low fat UHT milk, cans of tuna in brine, CDs, muesli, chocolates, cashew nuts, wrap around
skirts (capalanas), pasta, tins of jam and a huge chunk of cheese!
~Some frozen chicken, onions and tomatoes
~A dozen bread rolls on a day I cant afford to buy any!
Saturdays that can be spent relaxing on the beach
My 2 regular supporters, one of whom gave me double for April and some extra for May!
An internet connection (even if its slow and expensive!)
Friends who allow me to borrow their laptops so that I am able to do my university assignments and go online
The ½ a bucket of rainwater so that I can bathe everyday
My mosquito net
Insect repellent
The truck that goes into to town once a week so that I am able to so some shopping
Coca Cola!!!!
Rides to the other centre, 2km away from home, just when I need to go there – saves me a walk in the hot sun!
Not being mugged
Bleach so that I can wash all the maggots out the bin
My staple gun – no missionary should be without one!
The visitors who painted my roof with heat reflecting paint.
Those same visitors who dug a drainage ditch in the sand in our yard so that the bathrooms don’t flood when it rains
Rainwater to cook with and bathe in!
The Cross and all that it means to me.
What are you grateful for?
