Peter in the Bible was loud, outspoken, and a "take charge" kind of guy. The Peter I met this week was soft-spoken, humble, and modeled a gracious servant. Peter is the man who runs the Encounter Zambia farm. Until this week, he had no tools and used a butter knife as a screw driver. We painted his house, but on the inside there was nothing....."no-thing." Have you ever tried to run a 40 acre farm that is used to feed the community as a platform to share the Gospel with no tools? Before we left Luanshya, Peter came by, and we presented him with a tool box that included a hammer, saw, screwdrivers, plyers, and more. I had brought with me a hat, a thermos, and a brand new pair of work gloves; all of which were included in the tool box. I had to show him how to open and close the water thermos because he had never seen one. His eyes filled with tears at the sight of the tools. Not only has this man been running a farm with little to no tools, but in order to build his house two years ago, he had to move a large mound of dirt by hand. Why? He had no shovel. But the gifts and bounty of heaven were not over. Jim had been given a special gift of money before we left the states, and he chose to give that money to Encounter Zambia for the purchase of furniture for Peter's house. Peter, his beautiful wife, and his two 3 year old children had nothing but a mattress in their home (which was provided by Encounter U.S.A. two years ago). Before Peter left us, he prayed over us the sweetest prayer of blessing I've ever heard. "Lord, bless them in Jesus....bless them so they can continue Your work....bless them so they can do good deeds....have Your hand upon them Father...bless them...bless them....bless them...." All of this was prayed with tears. I in return say, "Lord, bless Peter. Let Your face shine upon him....may he look to You and be radiant...may You give him the strength, endurance, wisdom, and provision to run the farm so it can provide what is needed to many people for the glory of Jesus, in the name of Jesus, for the furtherance of the Gospel that changes everything. In Jesus name, amen."
