This picture pretty much sums up today!!!
It seems that God has brought me back to Ghana to try and teach me the same thing all over again that he tried to teach me before....Be Still!
Today i learnt something new about James, he doesn't like having free time on his hands as he just doesn't know what to do with it...he always has to be doing something. So yes there has been a lot of sitting around today and sometimes we just have to wait. God's timing is always perfect...as are His ways. But dont get me wrong its not like we did nothing!! We had a wee trip to the Accra Mall and once more i couldnt help but be astounded that somewhere like that exists in the middle of Accra!! It has always been a shock for me to walk back out into the heat and smells of Ghana having walked through the mall as it just seems so out of place.
I have to admit I was a little disappointed that we werent going to be staying in the Guest House that we usually stay in when in Accra (yes i like what i know) but it turns out that God was working out His perfect ways, as we truly believe we were guided to this Guest House so that we could meet another person who is staying here and has good contacts in and knowledge of the import/export business here in Ghana. So while we were sitting around today he was at work getting information and making contacts for us which may prove to be extremely useful in trying to have the container released.
So we may have another day of waiting ahead of us...but we will try to Be Still and Wait upon the Lord. As those who wait upon the Lord will be made strong.
Blessings :)

Hope you won't be waiting too much longer.
Wow it must be the summer of homecoming, because so many of the folks we knew in Ghana have come back this summer, including us. Wish we could have seen you.
Looking forward to reading about your adventures, and seeing pictures of the Clinic.
Glad all going well! Am I missing something but are we to know if the container was released? Don't think you mentioned it on Facebook either. Take care

Container is not released just yet but paper work has all gone through and we are just waiting for customs to give the final go ahead. should hopefully be today and if not monday at the latest!!!
