Hello everyone! It's been a while since I have posted anything so I thought I would give a brief update. We have had a very difficult five weeks or so here. As I have come to expect from my God, my life has been turned inside out and all of "me" has been shaken out and replaced by a need for my savior like never before. I was thinking a few days ago about all of the upheaval in my life and I couldn't help but reach the conclusion that I am thankful. So incredibly thankful. Sometimes, in this life, we have to walk through the wilderness. I'm in the wilderness right now. It's a time when we know that we can not take one more step, breathe one more breath, without Jesus.
I am doing a Beth Moore bible study right now called El Discipulo Amado. In her book, she talks about not being afraid to be alone with God. When I think about all of the situations that we have had here, I am grateful to have been surrounded with such an incredible group of believers. However, I stand alone before my God. And I shouldn't be afraid of that. I should be so far out on a limb with my God that if I even try to walk by sight and not by faith, I'm dead.
I also wanted to thank my church family in Tremont for being so supportive! I have recieved so many encouraging cards and letters! :) Thank you! You are all such a blessing to me! I know that so many of you are praying already but please continue to pray for us here as we fight for these precious children.
"Bendito sea Jehova mi roca, quien adiestra mis manos para la batalla y mis dedos para la guerra." Salmo 144:1-2
