The Goodness of God

It has been awhile since my last post. Things have been very busy for us. We started hitting the deputation trail very hard in January. God has been so very good to us since we started this "deputation adventure". We were able to spend November through February in Arizona and California where the weather was just picture perfect (sorry to all of you in the cold states). We had successful meetings and met some wonderful people. We had many new churches take us on for support and some that absolutely spoiled us!

Since we left the stability of our jobs in late April, we have seen the Lord provide for all of our needs and most of our wants. It has been just amazing to see how God will use his people, and sometimes unbelievers, to help us along the way. Our mantra is to be just be faithful every day in what God has for us to do. God is certainly blessing us for our faithfulness.

I have been asked to speak at a ladies' meeting at our sending church in March and then again at a church in Battlefield, MO in April. This is not something I have done often enough to feel comfortable at just yet. But I know that God will provide me with the words He wants me to say that will touch the hearts of the ladies who are in attendance.

We are praising the Lord also for A.J.'s salvation. He had made a profession of faith back when he was 6, but he realized recently that he does not remember the prayer he prayed and wanted to be sure. So on Sunday, March 8, A.J. accepted Christ as the Lord and Savior of his life.

Please pray with us that the situation with our house in Nixa would be resolved soon. We are in the process of a short-sale and we had a buyer, but the bank took so long in processing all the paperwork, that the buyers have backed out. So we are back to square 1. We know God has a plan in all of this, so we are not worried, just wanting to be free of the liability and debt.

May God bless you and your family with a fresh touch!
