"What, therefore, is our task today? Should I answer "Faith, hope and love?" That sounds beautiful. But I would say - courage. No, even that is not challenging enough to be the whole truth. Our task today is recklessness. For what we Christians lack is not psychology or literature... we lack a holy rage - the recklessness which comes from the knowlege of God and humanity. The ability to rage when justice lies prostrate on the streets, and when the lie rages across the face of the earth... a holy anger about the things that are worng in the world. To rage against the ravaging of God's earth and and the desruction of God's people. To rage when little children must die of hunger, while the tables of the rich are sagging with food. To rage at the senseless killing of so many, and the madness of militaries. To rage against the lie that calls the threat of death and the strategy of destrustion peace. To rage against COMPLACENCY. To restlessly seek that recklessness that will challenge and seek to change human history until it conforms to the norms of the kingdom of God."

-Father Kaj Munk, 1944

I know you are all wondering about the feeding of the Karamajongs, it couldn't have been more wonderful. That is if you can still use the word wonderful about a situation where children are so hungry for food that they come back three times for heaping plates of posho and beans and so hungry for love that they just about suffocate you and pull off all your skin.

I am so thankful for my sweet children who get right down in the dirt and love on these children with me, help me cook and serve food, and lead worship songs before Bible study. We as a family are thankful for the opportunity and resources to feed these children. During school holiday we will be feeding the children breakfast and lunch, having Bible study, playing games, clipping fingernails, cutting hair, washing clothes, and planting food on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Monday, Wednesday and Friday, a good friend of mine will go to the school and play soccer with the kids. Hopefully this will keep them out of the streets during the holidays until we can get them enrolled in school full time next semester, where we will continue to feed the breakfast and lunch daily.

Other than that, life is pretty normal, or as normal as life can be with 13 children and over 300 who come over on a regular basis. I'm thrilled that the kids are on break so that I can spend more time just PLAYING with them, plus we love going to do ministry as a family, to the hospital, to the Karamajong district, or here at home. The Lord is unimaginably good, so much so that I cannot often get my mind around it. Sometimes I feel crazy. Sometimes I feel reckless. Sometimes people tell me that I am crazy and reckless. Please pray that our family would continue to live and love recklessly, freely, extravagantly. Knowing God, knowing humanity, and recklessly trying to to bridge the gap in the small way that we can until this world can conform to the norms of the Kingdom of God. On EARTH as it is in Heaven.
