In the mornings from 6 to 7 a number of us come together for prayer on deck 7. Imagine our delighted surprise to see two people riding horseback along the greenway parallel to the beach! This happens several times a week. The two ride leisurely along, side by side, and end their ride with a mad race along the shore of the Atlantic Ocean. There in the midst of Togolese farmers who struggle day after day to bring forth a small harvest in their allotted patches, two eager horsemen trot, engrossed in their own companionship. Even so, God tucks joy into the mundaneness of our toils, if we will but look up and be refreshed by it.
