The Ship Has Arrived

We have been praying for more than one year that the Ship of Life would be completed and allowed to come to Cambodia. It has been difficult for me to understand why things have been delayed and postponed for what often seemed “unreasonable” situations. But, my impatience has once again brought opportunity for God’s timing.

On Friday, January 19th, we finally set sail from Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam at 5:15 P.M. We traveled for 3 hrs and then anchored in the river for the night. We continued our trip at 5:30 a.m. the next morning and anchored for the night after 14 hrs. On Sunday the 21st we arrived at the Cambodian border at 8:00 a.m. and waited all day for immigration officials to do their thing. We finally arrived in Phnom Penh, Cambodia Monday morning and docked at 8:00 a.m. There were no bands playing or confetti throwing but this moment seemed to me, to be one of the most memorable ones of my life.

What a great feeling for God to deliver this wonderful tool to be used for His glory. I somehow felt that the angels in Heaven were rejoicing with us at Gods goodness and His unquestionable timing of the ship’s arrival!
