yea this is a title


how are all of you doing i just want to start with i miss you all and hope your dreams come true. but hey that out of the way things have been cool out here in south africa exciting it is weird in our house there are 2 ends of the spectrum one elder that has like 2 weeks left and one that is only 4 weeks old it is interesting to see the dynamics and see the difference in behavior. we had some dope meetings including one that scheduled a braai. (equivilancy of a bbq) and one powerfull investigator. more on that later. although things have been hard due to the fact. that we knock a lot of gaits. and verry big dogs called boerboels. but yea.

on the spiritual side we met one investigator named daniel and he seemed sketchy but later we learned that he got in a biking accident and when they opperated the machine cut one of the main veins in his neck and put him into a stroke. which led to a 3 month coma in which his wife saw an oppurtunity and took all his stuff about 700,000 worth in assets and cash and hit the wind. but what blew me away was my companion asked one question after all of this was said he asked "has this all drawn you closer or pushed you away from God?" to which he responded with "closer, only closer" so my question is do your trials push you away or pull you in?
