Thursday evenings are special for us because one of our neighbors hosts an open table for dinner. Her generous spirit and inspiring cooking ability always make for a delicious and delightful evening. The tastiest morsel is the conversation. One Thursday we talked about African politics and on another the place of work in bringing fulfillment (and how hard should a person work anyway?).

Isaiah 42:16 "I will lead the blind by a way they do not know. In paths they do not know I will guide them." This is a promise we are seeing God fulfill. His guidance is for us to wait. As we wait, He has asked us to pray for our cities, because when the city prospers, its people prosper (Jeremiah. 29:7).
