BAY

By Michael Black

Uvango
bay: a vast, breath-taking place. One of the most incredible beaches I
have ever been to. Things like the beach just really open up your eyes
to how amazing our Heavenly Father really is.

To imagine he created it
just for our amusement and pleasure is just great. Today as I was
walking down the white sandy beach, it really just hit me that the world
is so much bigger then I am.

With the ocean stretching as far as the
eye can see, and just to imagine that it is just a tiny fingernail on
God’s hand is something that is hard to fathom, but as each and
every wave began to crash onto shore it hit me. God planned those waves,
and he has a plan for me in this great place.

For he has a plan for
everything, and nothing he does is a mistake. Something that I have
just recently come across has really helped fulfill my calling I have
in AFRICA. Though I have quite a long way to go, it is starting to move
faster then I could ever think. To imagine that just a few months ago I
was at a big middle school and now I am at a small 12-person class in
Africa is something I never thought would happen.

Going from the
occasional deer on the side of the Colorado highway to every other day
seeing a giraffe or zebra is just crazy – something some may only get to
live in their dreams. I am now at age 13 in the reality of Africa and
pursuing the great plan I have to complete here.
