Random thoughts from Joshua and Zara

Yesterday Zara and I were driving past the American Embassy in Kampala and she asked me "what is that?" I told her it was the American Embassy which I explained was the place where Americans do business such as get passports renewed etc. She said "...we're not Americans..." and I said that is right. Her reply was "..I'm a MAF Kid.." The other day I was driving to a friends house to get my haircut. On the way there Zara turned to me and said "...why didn't Jesus have to die twice?.." I explained that Jesus only had to die once and that what He did was enough to pay the price for our sins and save us...she then proceeded to talk about the lovely orange gate that was in front of us so that was the end of that conversation. It makes me wonder sometimes what goes through kids heads :) I have been reminded a lot recently of the passage in Deuteronomy 6 where it talks about Loving the Lord your God and impressing these things on you...
