Addo Elephant National Park

After our 10 day holiday with my wife's family, we decided to tick off another item from my bucketlist and visit the Addo. This is a great park close to Port Elizabeth in the Eastern Cape of South Africa. We saw a whole host of animals, including buffalo, warthog, zebra, red hartebees, eland, jackal, and the mighty elephant.

 

What I did find strange is that we only saw two elephants. It is called an elephant park, but it seemed like they were nowhere to be found... Fortunately I know that there are plenty of them around. Fact is that these animals are like mice, almost impossible to hear when they walk. The bush is also very dense after all the rain, it would be easier to see them during winter.

 

All that said, it is much the same in our walk with the Lord. We look around and do our best. We jump from the one lookout point to the next, but we cannot find the answers. In the meantime, the answers might be very close, right next to us. It might be that we should just persist...

 

Matthew 6:33 AMP

 

But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides.

 

Matthew 21:22 AMP

 

And whatever you ask for in prayer, having faith and [really] believing, you will receive.
