Today started with exhaustion and burden. The Lord placed on my heart and mind an old friend from Canada, and with that came a few old hurts. But after a little while I realized I needed to pray for him. Peace followed, but energy came gradually. But when we give our burdens and exhaustion to the Lord, he gives us what we need. I felt suddenly strong and ready to walk strongly. In these next few weeks especially I am going to really need to rely on the Lord for strength. He is my everlasting arms. Arms that hold me up, arms that are my only strength at times.

As we were coming home from Bible study tonight, we got hit by a motorcycle. The guy was fine, but wanted to argue that it was our fault. Here, it doesn't matter what happens, the motorcyclist is never at fault legally. So, after giving him 100 Bs to fix his front light, we convinced him that taking us to court would just be an inconvenience for him and us and after a little bit, he agreed. Praise God it wasn't any worse and that the guy was nice enough to not take us to court.
