Answer

God made Himself real to our family today.  We have really been going through a lot lately-we had a piece fall off the car, we have a load of things to be done on the van, our washer stopped working again, we had a really low month of support, there is a boat load of stuff going on regarding my Uncle that is in jail, and then we found out that we need to move Garth’s mom into a nursing home as soon as possible. 

Load upon load…like a kid walking around with a backpack full of bricks.  Garth and I try hard to show the kids that we need to take that load and put it at the feet of the Cross.  We can’t change these things by worrying, but we can give them to the One that has all the answers.

So, we have been praying for each of these things daily, hourly, and sometimes with each breath.

One of the other requests has been about what to do during the kids spring break.  We really wanted to go to Virginia and visit Garth’s sister, but when we looked into the cost, we decided we couldn’t do it.

Today, God chose to bless us with an answer.  We received a check to help cover the cost of our trip to Virginia.  The first thing we did is thank the Lord for providing.  We have seen so many clear evidences that God cares about this little family, whether we are in Indonesia, or Wisconsin.  It is so amazing to  know that we are never forgotten!

From Wyatt-“The Lord is full of miracles, even something small like a check to help us get 1500 miles to Virginia. Yeah so …--Indonesia Raya!!!  (If you want to know what that means ask Wyatt)
