Fig is an acrostic for Faith in God from Mark 11:22. We as missionaries living in Japan enjoy our FIG in Japanese or In Nihon Go (ING). Here we are figing away in a beautiful country Japan. This started out as a place for family to get updates and pictures but now this goes all over the world. Praise God. May you be blessed as you read my posts. Some funny, some sad, & some really stupid and embarrassing for my family.

Overkill?
While on a hospital call today visiting someone we saw this huge floral arrangement. It was shocking to see how big it was the rooms are tiny so it wouldn't fit. Mihoko says this thing has to cost in the high hundreds of dollars to a thousand. It was as big as me and that's big. Mihoko said there must be a politician or a family of one in that section of the hospital. I thought to my self talk about over kill and then I had to laugh about the implications of people in a hospital dying and the floral arrangement is what finishes you off trying to pick the thing up and smell it. The pot is clay and must be close to a hundred pounds itself. I tell Mihoko if I am ever in the hospital just have people donate to the church so it can be fixed up. I will be bummed at expensive flowers dying in front of me while the church has so many needs. But I am not intending on going to the hospital any time soon except for my constant eating of this Costco bread.
