This blog is all about my journey living and working in Moshi, Tanzania. This process began before I moved to Moshi in July 2006 and continues as I have been living here six and a half years. I like to write blogs about the kids here at Treasures of Africa Children's Home and about life in Tanzania and the fun things about living in a different culture. The children have become a huge part of my life here. I have fallen in love with them and each day they bring something new and fun to life. God has truly blessed me.

Amazing Peace

I've had one of those weeks where I was basically non-stop from the time I woke up until my head hit the pillow. And my head didn't hit the pillow until very late at night. It was one of my busiest weeks in a long time.
Today was the first day since I've moved to where I am now staying that I made it home before dark.
In the midst of all the busy-ness and working so hard I have had an amazing peace. I have had a few opportunities this week to get really frustrated and offended. But instead I have been aware of each situation as it was happening...almost like I was watching it happen to someone else...and I have seen myself respond to each situation from a desire to bless that person. I am so thankful to the Lord for grace. I can feel such an amazing peace over me at this time in my life. When so much of my life is changing right now and little details keep popping up that need to be taken care of and that full-time job of mine calls me all the time, there is this amazing peace surrounding me.
Yesterday someone told me my face was glowing...hmmm...I guess others can see what I have been feeling. God is neat that way. :)
