After almost 2 weeks, we finally have water here at Second Mile Compound! Yippee!!! The two weeks have been truly a time of learning... to be patient (with each other), to understand how others feel (just think of Africa and even the flood affected areas right here in the Philippines), to be creative (we put out buckets to collect rainwater), to be thankful (that just outside our compound, we can get water), and many more. It even showed man's kindness - as I went to the nearby sports club and was able to get a free shower. =)
It also gave me a real appreciation of this resource - water! A lot of our everyday life is dependent on water - washing hands, cooking, laundry, shower, and more. Basically, cleaning - water cleanses us of the filth that we acquire everyday. It reminded me of the Living Water that washes away all my complaining attitude during this time... and in the future. Thank you, Jesus.
