Those are the words that I was repeating--quite loudly-- when a strange man jumped into the passenger seat of our van as I was pulling away from the market.
Thankfully, the Lord was guiding me through the situation, and I slowly moved my purse from within his reach, and got my phone out to call Andrew. I turned off the car and was attempting to get out and get Anaiah out, when finally, the man hopped out of the vehicle and ran. Someone started chasing him, but he disappeared into the market.
I thought that he might want money or food, but all he said to me was, "You give me a ride." That's when the yelling started and I continued to say, "No, No! What are you doing? You cannot just hop into someone's car! Get Out! Get Out!"
When he realized that I was going no where with him present, and that I was on the phone making a call, he decided to head on out.
All I could think as I pulled away was "Thank you, God, for your protection."
Anaiah was in the back the entire time and I don't recall her even making a sound. She was probably just wondering why her mom was all of a sudden yelling and making a scene!
That was definitely enough excitement for one day. After going to the store for a few things, we made our way home and tried to relax.
I'll definitely be driving with doors locked from now on and windows only rolled down slightly.

Our New Vehicle!!!

Here she is...isn't she a beaut? We think so.
It's a 1992 diesel Mitsubishi Delica, which seats seven...or thirteen, as Andrew found out last week while hauling guys around from church!
The van is such a blessing for our family...it is so nice to have our own way of transportation.We are very thankful to God for providing a vehicle at just the right time!
The van is great for getting around Fort Portal and for trip to Kampala; now we just need a strong 4 x 4 vehicle for the ministry.
Thank you for your prayers regarding our vehicle--we are grateful that you have been asking God to provide this for us!

So, now that we've got a van, we can pick you up from the Entebbe airport anytime--just let us know when you are coming!! :)
