OH MY WORD, GIDEON!!! I'm soooo happy for you!!! That is absolutely incredible!!!!! it went up to number two???? You are amazing!! I reeeeally really want to hear it. Is there any way I could get a copy or something?? I can't even tell you how happy I am right now. I am just so very excited for you!!
You know, I was thinking about being rather similiar to your situation. Even though life is really hard at times, I know that God is good. This whole experience has made me really cling to God. Especially because during it all, I'm having trouble with my boyfriend. I'm ready to break up. I know that sounds shallow and stupid, but... well, it gets complicated, I guess. The hard thing is that I know I will break his heart. And that thought breaks mine.
So... God is good. OHHH and there were some missionaries at my church and they were talkign about needing a teachers aid in Peru, South America and... I meet the qualifications. My parents are gone now, but when they get back I'm going to talk to them about maybe waiting a year to go to college and go to Peru first. I doubt that my dad will let me. He's pretty certain about me just going to college like a "normal person" I guess. I dont' know. Pray for me that I would have wisdom. The more that I try to find wisedom and look for it, the more I realize how far I am from getting it.
Well, give me some kind of idea of how I could get a copy of your song, no matter what. Tell me what it is about, who wrote it and ... what language it's in ;-).
Ok, Gids, My heart is full of joy for you.
May God bless all your efforts,
Bethany

Hey,
The tone of your last mail reminded me of my own dillema when I wanted to join college, remember that time?It was quite confusing but hey! I learnt alot from that. PLus I grew, I learnt like you said that life doesn't always sail with our expectations and I even learnt further that there is a limit to trying. Do all you can, pursue all that is in your scope and power to pursue and leave the uncertain for God to determine, He has a good , pleasing and perfect will for you.
Hey did I tell you that I released a single?Well it plays in one of Nairobi's fm stations and in the last three weeks been going up in nomination in the top ten songs of the week. It rose from no 10 the 6 and last friday it was number 2! I was so so excited that guys like my song and and I hope that it ministers to them.I hope to release another song this month. Hey I thank God ny school fees for this term are fully paid by a friend from the states that I haven't even met! GFod is faithful.
I' praying for you and hoping that he will give you peace and joy despite the ups and downs. I miss you.
