Uganda: Day 6
As we go through this year, God has been saying 'Establish' and He is very prominent in the way of leading. I have been trying to achieve things from the UK. When God said very clearly' it is your responsibility do not put it on others'. We have a tendency to let others do and not be responsible for what He is saying.
