| Being In Christ Means You Are Never Alone! Let brotherly love continue. Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels. Remember the prisoners as if chained with them—those who are mistreated—since you yourselves are in the body also. Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge. Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?” -Heb 13:1-6 Traveling from Africa to the USA can be a trial for the strongest individual. The trip started a 2AM GMT from Abidjan, Cote d' Ivoire. My first stop was Casablanca at 7am GMT. After a 4 hour layover, 11:30 AM GMT, we departed for New York's JFK Airport. A 9 hour flight arriving in New York at 2:45 PM EST. There is a 5 hour difference so it would have been 7:45 PM GMT. Unfortunately my connecting flight to Salt Lake City was changed and I had to wait until 6:45 AM which was a 14 hour layover. It was December 30 and all the local hotels were completely booked for the New Years Eve celebration. I had to spend the next 14 hours in the airport trying to sleep on a bench. The temperature outside was below freezing and it felt like it was just as cold inside the airport. I was used to a daily temperature of 85 degrees and 100% humidity so this was hard. I put on everything I had and laid down on a bench with all my baggage under my feet. Just as I was dozing off someone said, "hey mister can I give you a blanket?" I looked up and there was a man about 30 years old standing over me smiling. I looked around but it seemed that nobody was able to see us. I was a bit startled and didn't know what to say. He was all bundled up in a jacket and had a blanket wrapped around him. I said, "excuse me, what did you say?" He smiled and replied, "Do you want a blanket? It's really cold in here and I had some extra blankets in my storage area and decided to give them away." He had some kind of cart with boxes and blankets on it. I took the blanket and said thanks. I put the blanket around me and turned to the man to thank him again and he was gone. I looked for him and could not find him. See The Complete Story! More Exciting Things Happen!

But God
has chosen the foolish things of the world to show us His glory.
 The picture above is Calvary Chapel Abidjan-Cocody on a Sunday morning. We are constantly amazed as we watch God move tremendous obstacles to show us His great love. We know that we are the "foolish things" He has chosen to do His work. (See complete story)
