I will cross the bridge when I reach it. The pastor house has a good mattress in one room and the other room is not so well furnished. So today I bought a queen size mattress just in case my son returns to Malaysia and visits me in Ranau. My Singaporean friend may be paying me a visit soon. At least I could offer them to stay in my flat with reasonable amenities. I don't expect them to suffer inconveniences even for one or two nights. I live in a different world and part of my ministry among the Dusuns is to live humbly and in poverty among the people. I can't say I am truly poor though perhaps poor in spirit and prepared to give up many creaturely comforts of a modern urban society. No wonder Ezekiel is my favourite prophet for he is known as a refugee prophet, moving from one place to another, sometimes not physically but in the Spirit, he was caught up from Babylon to Jerusalem to see visions of the Jerusalem's temple, old and new.
