God's Way of Connecting People
In January I got a job doing PR for Invisible Children, though I had never done PR before.In February I decided to move to Africa to work for IC in Uganda, a move that will happen in early March.
Two weeks ago I went to REI to buy some clothes for Africa, where a man overheard me talking about Uganda. He happened to be connected with a pastor from Uganda who was coming to speak in San Diego for a couple days.
This past Thursday Invisible Children got a call from a girl at 20/20 - they want to do a story about AIDS in Africa and are looking for a good angle.
That night I went to hear the Ugandan pastor speak at a black Pentecostal church (so much fun) where I heard that he has founded an orphanage for AIDS orphans. He is struggling to raise the necessary support to take on more orphans.
Are we seeing the connections?
Tomorrow I'm going to try to connect him with 20/20. We'll see what God does with that.

It's like doing a connect the dots puzzle when you were little. You didn't know what the picture was until you were 3/4 the way done. In contrast, and adult can tell at a glance what it will be. Isn't it amazing to know that God saw what picture He was creating with all these dots before we were even around? And yet we don't even see it until it's right on top of us?
