Cliffside Dwellers of Northern Africa

As the family was sitting with a believer around a table laden with tea, pastries, and popcorn while working on the translation of the Book of Exodus, the Muslim call to prayer went off. The wife and children were hearing these stories for the first time in their own language and were astonished at God telling Moses His name: “God said to Moses, ‘I AM WHO I AM'” (Exodus 3:14 ESV). They said, “Say that again!” They were amazed and very excited. None of the family members got up to go and pray. Another believer sitting at the table was silently praying for the translation to penetrate the hearts and lives of the people who speak the local language. Give thanks to God that the translation is progressing well. It’s a joy for the translators to watch the people hear the stories in their own language! The first book is practically finished (audio pending) and the second book has been started. There are many involved in the process, and God’s Word is going forth. Praise the Lord!
