We have never loved rainy days. Especially living in Clarks Summit, rain came all too often and usually it was bitterly cold. But here in "Forno" Alegre (forno meaning stove).. rain if it lasts long enough, is a reason for excitement! The clouds help too! Rain with sun is an even bigger mess. So today we felt the wind back in our sails as we stepped out to run errands and didn't feel our shirts stuck to our backs. The heat just zaps your strength and eventually motivation to do life :)
Praise God for 81F weather! It makes going to the bank for the third time and hearing the account still is not ready more manageable. Our bills are due next week, and this is cutting it down to the wire! Praying we can get it worked out.
Maicol is in and out between meetings and Mandy enjoying a break from Language school. We are preparing to be in Israel is a short couple of weeks!
“He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding; he reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.” Dan 2:21,22
Thankful that our Sovereign God knows what we need and when we need it. Thankful that in his time and manner he sets up leaders and removes them, all in an effort to lead his very own. There are trials to strengthen us, and blessings to delight our souls, and in between, moments we feel the final blow right before we think we could break. But our God, our very present help, knows what lies in darkness and guides us by his side in the light. Thank you Lord for your mercy and grace to us.
High: 81F
Low: 73F/Bank issues
