Friends...Somedays I am just so free through Christ and I can't help but just be excited about what God has done and how He is moving and providing! He is completely faithful, I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that He is in control. At the same time I am struggling with the fact that my computer is broken and I have to rely on going to the Library or other people to use their and it is a time that is VERY important to have one! I need to write my first newsletter this week and it is due Thursday however I do not have the usual convenience of using my computer whenever I have freetime...so, that is a challenge and I appreciate ANY and ALL prayers because it really and truly is a struggle!
I have an amazing praise though and it overshadows the computer problem a thousand fold! My mom and I have come to an agreement concerning my house! PRAISE THE LORD!!! I will be able to move to China debt free, assuming all goes well with our plan, AND keep my house! He has proved to be amazingly faithful and I am just blessed to see Him work after so much prayer!
Thank YOU all for your prayers! I am blessed to be surrounded by such a fab group!
Love ya'll!!

During the past months, God has placed this Scripture on my mind and heart A LOT!!!
“That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing? Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are? Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?
“And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?
“So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God[d] above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
“So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today. '"
Matthew 6:25-34
