Whew!

Hi everyone!

I am so sorry I haven't written in a while. Life here has been really busy. Not only that, but the internet has been out due to a leak into the wireless router. While it is beautiful, rain messes up a lot of things here! Haha.

Things have been going really well. I definitely feel as though two months barely lets me get into things here. Sometimes I feel guilty that I am leaving in a few weeks, but I know that I shouldn't. I know this was where the Lord wanted me for two months, and after that I have a calling back in the U.S.

I have had a lot of good conversations lately, but these conversations have also confirmed my belief that there is a need for discipleship so much deeper than I can fill in a short term stay. Please be praying that the Lord would send someone to fill those needs that can be here long term.

My aunts and my grandpa made a book for the summer with a Bible verse for everyday. I always am so excited when I wake up to read it and be encouraged. Yesterday's verse was an encouragement for the weary soul: Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. (Galatians 6) It was JUST what I needed to hear.

Please continue praying for all of these kids. Since I am in their confidence, I can't share a lot of details, but there are so many of them that need prayer. I love these kids so much. Pretty soon, I think my heart is going to be in little pieces in all different parts of the world. Right now, there are bits in Georgia, Acapulco, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indiana.

I am amazed by our patient and awesome God.
