“And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will pursue them. But I will gain glory for myself through Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord” (Exodus 14:4).
These are recurrent themes that keep jumping out of the pages as I have been reading through the book of Exodus this summer. It centers on the theme of God gaining glory for himself and people coming to know the Lord through God’s people encountering fierce and ongoing opposition to the mission they were trying to perform on God’s behalf.

George and Robert and our son Steve travelled to these two towns- five to six hours away. In Isiolo we were able to visit with our former teammates- the Rainsfords. They just moved to this little ‘upcountry’ town to work with M-lim people there. Before reaching this town we were treated to the sights of highland country with sprawling wheat fields that reminded us of somewhere in the U.S.
