Peter is my day guard. I've written about him before. When I came home from shopping for games ideas before the Youth Bash (mentioned below in next post), I was explaining some of the games to him. He wanted to see the one game of "dress up relay" items, and promptly put them on. Yep, this is my crazy, kind guard.
FYI pray for him please. His daughter is seriously ill. It seems he only ever has 1-2 months of breathing room before he gets hit with more serious issues. This has been his life since I've known the man. A house fire. A flood. Theft of cattle. Death of daughter. Theft of all school/boarding items and cash for school fees for his 3 oldest on their way back to school in July. Cancer and recovery (PTL) for his wife. Etc. Seriously, you think spiritual attacks are not so common (if you've grown up in the USA at least). And then you arrive to a place like this and spiritual warfare is EVERYWHERE. Peter's life is only one of countless who suffer. Why? Because they are trying to be faithful to the Lord and the enemy doesn't like it.
So when I find him still having a sense of humor enough to voluntarily try on silly get-ups like this, I'm just thankful for his witness and humbled by his faith.
