Walking through downtown Cordoba this evening got me thinking on the topic of tile sidewalks. Who came up with the idea? Why couldn’t they just pick out just one style instead of a little of everything? Upon further pondering, I came to the conclusion that it’s one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard, as it was raining (as it often does in Cordoba), and myself, wearing flip-flops, was unable to walk without the help of my friend as the wet tile became more slippery than any ice I’ve ever been on. I mean, if they insist on tiling the sidewalk, couldn’t they at least pick a textured tile so that, when wet, it’s still possible to get traction? Geez people, let’s think this through again please!
But now, speaking seriously…
Could you guys pray for me? I got a bank account update e-mail today, and subtracting money for room and board, bus tickets and such, I have about 10 dollars to buy all the groceries I’m going to need for the next two months or so. So, I may be starting a rather lengthy, involuntary fast soon if God doesn’t do some massive miracle. As if it isn’t bad enough to have to wonder if I’ll have enough money for, you know, food, while I was home for Christmas, the base switched the mattress on my bed so one of the DTS students could use it and, in return, I received what is without a doubt the crappiest mattress of all time! Guys, we’re talking so crappy that I was more comfortable sleeping on my friend’s cement floor with nothing but a sleeping bag.
As well, I have a lot of massive decisions regarding the future coming up. I was asked by a friend who's starting a new YWAM base here in Cordoba to come with them and work at the base here, and I'm just not sure. I'd really appreciate if you could pray for clarity for me.
Anyway, I’d appreciate your prayers and love to hear from you guys.
