My Walk in Obedience. Monthly Archives: March 2015. March 19, 2015. Lately, it seems like every time I’m in the car, this song comes on the radio. You call me out upon the waters. The great unknown where feet may fail. And there I find You in the mystery. My faith will stand. And I will call upon Your name. And keep my eyes above the waves. My soul will rest in Your embrace. For I am Yours and You are mine. Your grace abounds in deepest waters. Will be my guide. Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me.

My Walk in Obedience. Monthly Archives: January 2015. January 27, 2015. A couple weeks ago, I attended a church which I think will be my church home here in Florida. Currently, they are going through a series called “Closer.” The topic a couple weeks ago was worship “our response to the things we value the most.”. For me, it was watching tv and reading, which in moderation are okay, as long is it doesn’t replace my time with God. January 1, 2015. I saw many people come and go from my life in 2014. We...

My Walk in Obedience. Monthly Archives: November 2014. I miss my kids! November 10, 2014. Today I was looking at pictures of the kids and my friends in Lesotho. I’m trying to put together an album of the kids and my time at Beautiful Gate. And boy does this make me miss my kids. I wish I could show you all their beautiful smiles. I wish you could all experience their huge hearts and beautiful love. November 7, 2014. About two weeks before I left, the Geurinks took me away with them to visit some friends ...

My Walk in Obedience. Newer posts →. November 7, 2014. About two weeks before I left, the Geurinks took me away with them to visit some friends down in Port Shepstone, South Africa. With all the craziness between the coup attempt and trying to finish things up before leaving, it was great to get away, to take some time away from campus and process what was coming. 8221; Hebrews 13:5, Amp. And I got to see the beautiful Indian Ocean one more time! Back in the States. November 5, 2014. So, I arrived back i...

My Farewell | Africa Bound
https://kamskates.wordpress.com/2015/02/06/my-farewell
My Walk in Obedience. February 6, 2015. I’ve realized I haven’t blogged about a lot of my last adventures in Lesotho. Today, I want to talk about the amazing love shown to me by the staff and volunteers at Beautiful Gate. The day before I left, I had a farewell. I don’t even know fully how to describe it, but it is a beautiful ceremony. I had seen many done and participated in them in the past, so I knew what was coming. But it was so much more. Mme Mataeke is the nurse. She was hired about half way ...

Goodbyes | Africa Bound
https://kamskates.wordpress.com/2015/03/02/goodbyes-2
My Walk in Obedience. March 2, 2015. This is my Bible study encompassing two Americans, one Dutch lady, two South Africans, two Basotho, and a South Korean lady. Love my international Bible study! And here is the larger group who came for lunch, adding two Canadians and two Americans to the mix! Sunday evening I had a few friends over to play games so I could say goodbye. The evening included yummy food and a rousing game of Redneck Life. As well as Ticket to Ride. Wednesday morning before my farewell, I...

Pictures from Songs | Africa Bound
https://kamskates.wordpress.com/2015/04/01/pictures-from-songs
My Walk in Obedience. April 1, 2015. As I’m sure long time readers have noticed, songs often speak to me. Recently, I put together a presentation for my life group about my time at Beautiful Gate. It was a simple presentation with pictures of the kids. And I wanted to use a song I’d heard in one of the presentations Terp put together for Beautiful Gate called. Lonely eyes looking back at me. Will we leave behind the innocent to grieve? She would often cry, wanting to be held, missing her Mom. Last year a...

My Walk in Obedience. January 1, 2015. In 2014, I spent time in 5 countries, the majority of it in Lesotho. It was an amazing year, full of joy and heartbreak. Smiles, laughter, and tears. I saw many people come and go from my life in 2014. We had many teams and volunteers at Beautiful Gate. Also, the missionary community in Lesotho had a lot of changes in 2014. Short term and long term missionaries came and went, some on furlough, some called elsewhere. I had to say goodbye to the beautiful children, st...
