May the Lord guide and direct your fa...Dear Sister,<br />May the Lord guide and direct your family, I know it is very difficult to do, and many years ago when we were missionaries in Mexico God lead us to return to the states. It wasn't easy to do, but looking back we could see how God used it in our lives. We never quit serving Him, no matter where we lived, and God used each step that we took to build our lives and direct us--and I know he will do the same with you all. <br />Praise the Lord for a husband who isn't afraid to seek God with his whole heart and perhaps make some decisions that are hard to understand, but better to obey God and do His will than to serve man. May the Lord bless you and we will pray for your transition.Carolee's Corner Canary Islandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12711262157997714061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023472639782516461.post-31075333221434975112009-12-17T09:16:14.717+01:002009-12-17T09:16:14.717+01:00Wow!!!

There is so much ruin there, and so many voices are needed who have had an outside perspective. I hope he finds just the right secular job to be "Jeremiah" to our own people. I will be praying for you guys.Stonefoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01315274338937631860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023472639782516461.post-54696765363814435282009-12-16T23:38:29.550+01:002009-12-16T23:38:29.550+01:00The beautiful thing is that you are taking steps o...The beautiful thing is that you are taking steps of faith...and that is all that God ask of you.

Praise the Lord that you and your family are open and willing to do what the Lord is directing you to do... even if there are some struggles and even if there are those who don't understand or agree with what you are doing, but if the Lord has given you His peace and His guidance (and it looks like He has), then you know you are doing the right thing. I'm looking forward to hearing what the Lord will do next with your family and the ministry He has planned for you. *hugs*Arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02616597859669901083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023472639782516461.post-8727350860593234512009-12-16T17:53:22.906+01:002009-12-16T17:53:22.906+01:00Pilar, I am praying for you and your family in thi...Pilar, I am praying for you and your family in this transition time.
