Vehicle Situation Update...

Just a quick update...
We have a Kenyan friend who knows one of the best lawyers in Kitale (we've heard this about this particular lawyer from a couple of sources).  Roger has an appointment with him around 8:00am to meet and talk before going to the police station.  Roger has already decided not to take the car, his rings, his i-phone, or anything else valuable.  We've been assured that jail won't be likely (praise God, I hope they're correct), but they also shouldn't impound the car without further investigation.  Doesn't mean they won't try - they already told Roger on the phone that the car would be impounded.  Roger is - not unreasonable - stressed, but is trusting God with the situation.  He's taking a friend with him to the station - and also, our Kenyan friend is meeting the lawyer with him.  I am strangely at peace (or maybe not so strangely?  I recall something about peace that passes understanding...) over the whole thing, even thinking about more serious outcomes.  God's got this and He has a purpose for it all, and it is a purpose for our good and His glory.  I can't think of a better reason for allowing it.  Our enemy may intend it for evil, but God intends it for good.  Please continue praying for us that we will rest in the One who alone is our Hope and that we would be ministers of the Gospel of Peace.
