• My sister, Natalie, arrived here in Nicaragua last Wednesday night.  It was so fun to be on this side of the gate at the airport to welcome someone.

  The days are getting closer and closer for us to go home.....a little more than a week left.   I have mixed emotions...... so looking forward to seeing family and friends.  I've never been away from home for this long.  But I hate to say goodbye.  hate it.  I usually end up saying, 'see you later'.  Everyone asks when I'll be coming back..."whenever God works it out...I'll be back".  :) 

  The other day I was thinking how God works and does things so much better than I could ever imagine. Honestly.... last year I  had decided that I wasn't going come to Nicaragua.  There was some personal things that'd happened in my life the year before and I was still needing God to heal me and restore me.  So I had told Natalie, "no, I don't plan on going this year".   Well, God had other plans....it ended up that I came down here TWICE!  :)  And God has done sooo much in me.  Here I am sitting here in Nicaragua...I'm so amazed at God. It brings tears.....

  "Oh, that men would give thanks to the LORD for His goodness,
           And for His wonderful works to the children of men!
   "For He satisfies the longing soul,
           And fills the hungry soul with goodness." ~ Psalm 107:8-9
