He Lights The Way
September 17, 2013
One of the things that Caitlin and I like to do after dinner
is stand on the roof watching the sunset. We go up to the roof because it is
quiet. We have just finished dinner and it is lighter on the roof as the sun
sets and we wait for the power to come on, also there is always a nice cool
breeze.
Last night Caitlin told me a story about the cross on the
church across the street from the mission. I never knew that at night it is lit
up by solar lights. It is a glowing reflection of God’s love to the people of
the village here, but also to those outside of St. Louis. It lights the way…
literally.
Many years ago there was a boat full of Haitians who were
lost at sea when a storm hit- their boat capsized and they saw the cross on the
church and the began to swim towards it and it got them safely back to shore.
It is so cool to know that God lights the way in
so many ways here in Haiti.
