Hey gloggers, we made it sort of.

Lori and I towed a trailer containing a large commercial propane stove so that Baja Bible School BBS might have an upgrade. Many thanks to Rory Moore for his gift of the stove.

Towing the stove made our trip at times hazardous, weaving in and out of Los Angeles traffic at rush hour, in the rain, at night while maniac drivers swerved in front of us with no stopping distance between us.

But we finally made it…we thought. When we arrived at the Mexican US border we were guided to the declaration lane to discuss the entry of the commercial stove into Mexico. The border guard refused to allow us entry because the stove is commercial and commercial cargo must be admitted at another border crossing several miles away. Soooo, we traveled to the other border crossing in Otay and waited while the border guard inspected our trailer. She said that the stove is fine but the trailer is illegal because we did not possess any paperwork for the trailer. We were denied entrance for the second time. We decided to take the trailer to a friend of BBS who lives in Imperial Beach and store it there. The staff would pick it up later in the week.

After two border rejections and a cranky border guard who gave us the riot act for not having passports, we finally made it to BBS about supper time.

We are well and tired ready for a big week. Some of you have been concerned for our safety, the president of BBS assures me that in the right part of town we are fine. There you have it…I do ask for your prayers, I will have the privilege of teaching some of the fine future leaders of the church about the fatherhood of God.

One of you asked me to share what God is teaching me in all this…today I learned that if you do God’s will, you will be rejected, harassed, turned away, and hollered at for your paperwork. But God is bigger than the opposition, he is amazing, at work, sovereign and in control.

You are loved.
