Romans 12:9-18
Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

Better words could not be spoken before we leave for Namibia.
Read them and then Read them again each day before we go!!
Print them out on a sheet of paper and take them with you.
When fear of going seeks up on you,
read them and find God' peace.
When you feel worn out and tired,
read them and be reminded of what God calls us to be and do.
When you are not sure what to do,
read them and be remind what God would have you do.
When you are not sure how to handle a situation with someone else on the team, read them and know how God calls you to handle it.
When Dieing to Self seems impossible,
read them and see how God asks you to do it.
Follow these words and you will come home truly blessed!!
