Blessings Abounding

Friends, yet again, I'm sorry I've let you down.  If any of you ever really were interested in my blog, I've failed you big time, and I will make it up to you somehow.  I'll bring you a llama or something!

It's true. I haven't posted in over a month, but I've been crazy busy the past month!  Things seem to start to be slowing down, which may or may not be a good thing for my sanity. Who knows?  I just know that a little over a month ago I was pouting and angry that I wasn't doing much here, and I felt like I was wasting my time. Then the Lord filled my schedule with ways to serve Him, my heart with joy and peace, and my mouth with his praise!  Call me crazy, I just love to brag on my Savior's faithfulness!

Anywho, life here has been going by soo fast!  I've already been here almost 5 months! The days are flying by, and I'm not really sure how!  Everything is changing in the organization I'm working with, so it feel like we're just holding out til the big changes happen. We'll deal with new stuff when it comes around in January! 

I will share one big change with you, and even add a picture!  Our immediate supervisors, the Constantes, left for the states last weeks as they ended their term here.  I'm going to miss them!  Especially this little booger!

This is Joshua, and I taught him to walk before he got on that plane!
But yeah, changes are happening, and it's very exciting!

In other news, God is just showing me day after day his faithfulness, and since this blog was meant to share my heart, I will!  It just seems that every day God is showing me how much He is in control of absolutely everything, and that Romans 8:28 really is true:  all things work together for the good of those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose.  When we stop trying to run from God and do things our way, we can see the faithfulness of His Word in full force.  Even in the hard times, He gives us unspeakable joy, which is so awesome. 

So as you go throughout the rest of your day and/or week, I just want to challenge you to seek the Lord.  Sing praises to Him. Talk to Him. Listen to Him. Study his Words.  He will be faithful to be beside you every step you make!

Sorry for the vagueness of this blog, and no real information on what I'm doing now.  Have some patience, and I promise to get my A game on and write more! Peace and blessings people!
