Sometimes you just want to hide in a box.


Praise God! After 2 months I finally have internet that works well enough to listen to K-Love. I’m counting this as miracle #3. Our hauling truck had to be worked on today so we were pretty much grounded for the day. We have been hauling sand for 2 days to mix with concrete for the 2nd floor deck we are ready to pour. Today was supposed to be the last day of hauling sand. 

I was feeling really down today. When we went to Bible Study Pastor Mkisi spoke on the battles we are in being Spiritual battles. We are fighting the unseen. Sure I’ve heard this before many times but today was like a pep talk from Jesus. Perfect timing of coarse but I was so down I still wanted to cry. I ate some cheese curls and that held me up until I got home but I was still battling. Then I decided to try to listen to K-Love on my computer. What do you know it works, Praise God! I have a month to go here and this is going to really help keep me going.

#2 Had a really hard day and I was ready to come home. My daughter called that evening on Skype and for the 1st time Skype worked for 22 minutes all the other times we were lucky to have more than 30 seconds. I talked to my grandson and Bill and Kelly. Kelly put her iPhone on the counter and I watched her make a cake. Almost like being there with her. Praise God he knew how much I needed that.

#1 Again I was down about a week or so ago and all I could think of to do to help was Praise God. I walked toward the store to get some water and praised God all the way. I wasn’t there a minute before my phone rang. It was Steve Butcher our Hesed President calling to see how things were going with our Orphanage build here in Mzuzu. We talked for ½ hour. God’s perfect timing again, thank You Lord.

There have many other miracles while I have been here but these 3 are related. God wanted to let me know He is here with me and listening to my every word. Just when I’m doubting why I’m here He lets me know He is the one that sent me.
