Good morning!
I am so excited because even though I woke up a few times last night, I asked God to give me rest, and it worked! (of course, lol) So it’s been productive, it is now 6:45 am, I got Sam up for school at 6, (he is a 13 year old boy that lives with me, he has been with me since he was 4). Made his breakfast (eggs and oatmeal) sent him off with water and a banana. Made the bed, put the laundry away, cleaned up after making breakfast, spent time with God, wrote my scripture for the day (1 John 3:22), grabbed a banana and now here we are! Feels great to accomplish what God has set me to do instead of sleeping in lol.
Yesterday a need was brought to my attention. For several months now the senior citizen population has been on my heart. It’s a segment of the population that isn’t cared for here in the villages. Last week there was a jajaa (senior citizen) that was in desperate need of medicine. She was going to sell her goat to get some but the Lord had us step in and now she is receiving treatment. Yesterday there is a male jajaa that needs a procedure and the doctor went to the pastor but the pastor was not interested in helping (I believe it’s a culture thing) So the team talked and we came up with a plan. This Jajaa doesn’t even have food, and there is no help in the community. He is still pretty strong. We are going to give him work on the bible school land, maintaining it in exchange for food. We are going to get information about his procedure (one of the core team is a licensed doctor) and then go from there.
Remember how I said the Lord told me to “be still” there are plenty of people here where I live that need Jesus, God will bring them to our attention and provide what they need, Jesus and tangible needs.
Next on the agenda today, working out….(which i have utterly failed at for over a year) Today is Tuesday so it’s Rhythm Revolution training. Have you tried it? It’s harder than it looks, but lots of fun. It’s out of Korea, you can find it on youtube.
