When Rumiko first expressed a burden to meet with our cousin on Dad's side, I wasn't sure of what to do.
It was really hot, I wasn't doing very well, and I said to myself, I couldn't ask Kazue if we could make an appointment to see her and then--knowing me and my medical condition--be the very one who might have to cancel if temperatures got too high that day.
I'd hand-delivered a note to Kazue's home (I wanted to see if I could walk to her house in the heat) telling her about how Rumiko wanted to meet her but it might be my fault she wouldn't get to do so, etc.) She phoned saying we could meet again when it got cooler, not to worry about it this time around. BUT Rumiko decided she'd just go over by herself.
We prayed, and God had Kazue come home from at the right time, and they had a good talk--for 2 hours? Thank you so much for praying.
And the Bible Conference and Bible School graduation Joyce went to, I was able to see online. Someone I noticed viewing proceedings via ZOOM was Kaoru Kurokawa, who had been in Bible School the same time as my husband Kinya.
Kaoru introduced me to Ikura, or Japanese Caviar. Pastor Ishikawa remembers how Daddy introduced him to lemonade. We remember the strangest things, yes? We just need to be faithful in the smallest, seemingly insignificant ways. Then maybe someday God will ask us to speak to a distant relative about important eternal matters, answering questions and talking for 2 hours.
For now, we just need to give out fish eggs...I mean, we need to be faithful.
