A few months later, I confided in a close friend that I was pregnant with our third child. Instead of the congratulations I expected, her response was a very serious question: \u201cWhy would you bring another child into the world knowing that you are going to live in Africa?\u201d and continued by stating, \u201cYou are needed here in Britain; why go to Africa at all?\u201d She was, and is, a valued friend and a mature believer and her question was valid, for it is unreasonable to expect everyone to see things the same way that we do. Why indeed should we bother with Africa, when there is much need here and in many places of the world? If my memory serves me rightly, I replied that while the need for Gospel workers in the UK was huge, there were more than enough Christians and resources to reach the British and that God was asking us to go to help reach the peoples of Africa.<\/p>\n
God had already used that chapter of our life to convict us of the claim of \u2018the unreached\u2019 to be given top priority in all missionary effort. I don\u2019t recall what the statistics were back in the early nineties, but right now in Africa alone there are approximately 950 identified unreached people groups, mostly very Gospel-resistant people. I don\u2019t know why God gave us more passion for the unreached of Africa than for the unreached of anywhere else but we have never needed to know that. After all, while we and Aim International focus on Africa and Africans, others will focus on other needy areas of the world. It\u2019s just teamwork on a grand level.<\/p>\n
\u2026while we and AIM\u00a0focus on Africa and Africans, others will focus on other needy areas of the world. It\u2019s just teamwork on a grand level.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cDesires of your heart\u201d<\/h3>\n
At about the same time as those two conversations, another friend drew my attention to Psalm 37:4: \u201cDelight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart\u201d. It dawned on me that if we commit to living wholeheartedly for God, it is He who conceives our ambitions and desires within us and then grants them, bringing glory to Himself and blessing to his people. Of course, going to Africa with three young children was a big deal and yes, \u2018bothering with Africa\u2019 has brought many challenges, often large ones, but the blessings have been no less. We have always told our children that the rough and smooth are together the true spice of life for Christians: few spices taste good on their own, but the combination of the bitter and the sweet often produces the best of flavours. That\u2019s what serving God in Africa has been like for us.<\/p>\n
Why?<\/h3>\n
So why bother with Africa? Because God loves Africans, Jesus died for them and too many don\u2019t know that yet. I praise God that He shares out the load of taking the Gospel to the nations. I praise God that married, single, children or no children, we can be used by the Creator of the Universe to take the best news possible and make it available to those who need to hear it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
