Sick and Tired...


Yeah, I am just complaining now...:) I was sick over the weekend and I am still a little worn out over the whole thing. It is hard to be at home alone with a three month old when you are sick as a dog. Rob had to go to church though because he was the speaker... It is just that days like that I wish church services in India were not four hours long... Anyways, enough complaining for now.

I am feeling better today and glad that this is a new year with new beginnings. We are making our plans for this year at the mission and it is very exciting to go over the incredible possibilities. We just pray that God would ultimately be the one making the decisions on how we proceed from here. We are also encouraged to see some of our Indian brothers and sisters respond in faith to God's call on their lives. We heard of one pastor having 26 baptisms at his church this month. Absolutely amazing. We also have one of our friends living at the mission named Joseph and though he makes a very meager salary he is going to provide a meal in a couple of weeks for the mission families and all of the hundred children at the orphanage next door. He is responding to God's call to give and I believe God will continue to provide for his needs. This man in particular is a true blessing to our family. As he works around the mission I can see that he is constantly interceding. He is a prayerful man and one who celebrates the Lord's goodness. I have included a picture of Joseph when he came to see Moriah at the hospital. I feel completely surrounded by God's presence when Joseph is around.
