It is always a challenge to
“follow” someone. At Chikankata I followed in the footstep of many giants of
the faith. In R&D I followed my good friend Mr Mitch Menagh as Director. As
Project Officer, I am following the highly effective Marshall Currie. It always
appears so daunting and so that is how I feel right now. However, I am reminded
of the story of Joshua, who probably had the hardest “follow” in the world,
when he took over where Moses left off. He was given this promise, reassurance
and direction;
“As I was Moses, so I will be
with you. I will not fail or abandon
you”
I am also reminded that all the
great achievers in the Bible had one thing in common; they were just ordinary
folk who took risks in obedience to God and believed in him. Generally the
results were quite exceptional. In many cases, his strength was showcased
through the weakness of others and I really hope that happens here
.
