Dear friends
It has been around 3 month since we
came back from Poland after spending there few good months.
The last weeks here has been not easy.
I and our daughter, Hannah were felling sick. She could get well and
few days after fell sick again. This is something what always crumble
my heart, I am scared, I am fearful and do not like it, as all of us
desire to see our children healthy and always happy. But God teaches
us in every situation to look at him and trust him for better.
The
time I was sick I felt a bit relief because it was not her this
time. I hoped to be well again, without seeing doctor, trusting God
to heal me. We had no money for going to hospital. I real struggle,
as day was going to the end I knew I felt not better but worse. I
wondered how about tomorrow? I thought God will heal me, simply like
that. and He still did, but using the doctor I had to go to see. You
must wonder how I managed to do that? As day was going to the end God
provided money from place I did not think of and said go see doctor.
Many times we desire for something, and
we think God does not hear us, but it might be not God who does not
hear but can be us who are deaf to God's instructions. Let us think
of this for a moment - do we truly do what God want us to do?
Short update about work
I have to say big thanks to those who
are faithful in their support and prayers for us and children.
In last few weeks we managed to moved the shelter to the proper side of
land. We were able to expand a bit and make separated classes,
cemented the floor to protect kids from getting the giggers. Now we
are in process of making latrines/toilets for children. So far we were
able to dig and put a floor (one part though) still praying and
trusting God for finish up. Once again thanks for your generous
giving.
Some can wonder why we are here if it is so hard, but let me tell you something -God whom we serve is faithful God, he
said in the book of Joshua 1;5
„I will be with you as I was with
Moses, I will always be with you, I will never abandon you”.
Very wonderful promise, He does not
abandons us. He will always be for us. He did miracles 2000 years ago
and he still does them, using different ways, using people, you and
me.
All of us have ability of doing
something , mother Theresa said once „ Not all of us can do great
things but all of us can do small things with a great love. It is not
how much we give but how much love we put in giving”-that matters.
Friends we need your support as well as
your prayers. We need transport money, food, rent etc. We are in the
big see, looking for the oar to help us going. You can be this oar
God want to use.
„I will go down if you hold the
ropes, I will go into the caves , I will go into the places you will
never go, but you must hold the ropes. I will go down if you will
hold it on. I will go if you are holding fast, holding tight”
William Carey.
