Lockdown 630

Lockdown Day 630- 16 December 2021

After a cold windy night yielding about 7mm of rain, we left to take the scenic route to Groot Brak via Oudtshoorn and Mossel Bay.

We activated our live location on our Whatsapp group with Lukas who is on his way with Roxy the Schnauzie from Bloemfontein via Meiringspoort to meet up with us in Groot Brak tonight.

Driving through the rest of the Langkloof, the temperature plummeted to 8 °C. To me this was a surreal experience, this was the very thing we had been praying for so fervently.

And then, a rainbow appeared.... looking like it was touching the ground. It was a God-speak moment confirming He's got this.

Arriving at Groot Brak at Louis and Nina's place, brought back such amazing memories. Lukas and Roxy arrived late afternoon and the reunion was sweet. We spoke about how, two years ago in 2019, we had absolutely no inkling of what was to come.

But tonight, for the first time in a long time, life felt normal again and as I get into bed, I offer up a prayer of hope that this is the beginning of the end for this abominable virus. And a prayer of faith for the restoration of the remnant of God's people. As the rain comes down once again, I drift off with a sense of wonder for our Creator in whom we trust. #Ggt
