One Last Sunday

Wow, our fourth Sunday here is behind us. For someone that gets a bit emotional when encountering God at home, flat running into Him here is overwhelming. Seeing Him intervene for the children here is incredible. Their cups have run over and spilled onto our lives. I hope I am stained. Ryan came home from the moto tour with a really bad sunburn, no surprise right? James put sunscreen on him three times during the day. They had a great time and Ryan got to play with his friend Jeremiah all day. However, by nighttime he was miserable. By morning huge blisters were covering his face. His eyes were swollen and of course it was hard for him to sleep much the night before. John actually prayed for Ryan specifically in church, it was one of those times you feel the Spirit, the kind that takes your breath away for a second. Later that afternoon Ryan woke up from his nap with no burn. There are small scabs from the blisters that had already popped, but all of the red is gone and his face looks back to normal, freckled and cute. Praise the Lord! I cant wait to tell you the other stories similiar to this one, we have seen God take care of us while we are here. I have been reminded that God was serious when He says "seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened", I need to get better about asking.

There were the usual #1100 or so people that turned up for their noodles. It is something I never get tired of seeing. Ryan is a pro at handing out the food, he knows just what to do. When you look at all of their faces, thinking about each precious person that crams into those walls trying to walk away with food, each with their own story, but each being prayed for that day, each having heard the gospel and learning more about Jesus love for them. I love it, Light in the darkness.
