First day back in SA

I've arrived safely in SA! Got in last night around 5 p.m. My Supervisor Winfred Oppong-Amoako and his wife Juliet met me outside of baggage claim. My roomate Millie was there as well. It was so nice to finally meet them! We drove to a restaurant, Mugg & Bean, and ate dinner, then came to the flat where I'll be staying. It's very quaint - one bedroom, bathroom, small kitchen and "lounge". Very cute! I'm glad to have Internet here so I can stay connected to people back home.
I haven't been here long so there is not much to write for now. I will rest today (Saturday) and tomorrow go to church with Winfred and Juliet. Monday I begin the internship at TWR! I'm very excited but not nervous at all - that is from the Lord, I know. I'm looking forward to what the Lord is going to do here, and cannot wait to see how TWR fits into His plan. Whatever happens, I pray that God receives the glory.
I'll be updating you within the next week, as things develop.

I am walking everyday with Jesus, I feel His presence sweetly near;
Unto me He whispers words of wisdom that banish doubt and quiet fear.
For I'm walking everyday with Jesus, with Jesus, my Saviour;
For I'm walking everyday with Jesus, I'll go with Him, with Him all the way!

I am walking every day with Jesus, although His face I cannot see;
He has said 'I will be with thee alway', His promise is enough for me.
For I'm walking everyday with Jesus, with Jesus, my Saviour;
For I'm walking everyday with Jesus, I'll go with Him, with Him all the way!
-Alexander's Hymns, no. 60

Thank God for the safe arrival! Will TWR have Rooibos in the kitchen for daily consumption? :)

Also, where did you get the hymn?
