ahhh rain!

growing! as a child i am not sure if i ever thought much about growing. yes i know at some point as a child i thought i would be a doctor or an actor but i am talking about the growing deep in the relationship with our heavenly father.

o-wait need some mosquito spray...........
okay now i smell like a can of sportsmen Max Repel Formula - o-well it has a long lasting protection

okay so as i live a different life here in another country and another culture i begin to be forced to go deeper. i am wondering though if i am being forced to go deeper because of the challenges and frustrations of living such a life... as a missionary. or maybe just being a christian we should expect these challenges to happen. I am convinced that if life was easy I wouldn't be forced to rely on our Father for guidance. I probably wouldn't be constantly asking Him why things seem the way they are. why is life difficult for the kids on the street? why can i not buy regular sandwich bread that last more than 1 day? today i am thankful that i am talking with God daily. forced or not i am talking. could i chat more? sure thing...
maybe i will stop asking why and just know that He is in control over everything.

yesterday it rained a little. grass is getting greener and the smell of clean is in the air.

i wonder what the roots look like in the ground of the brown grass. isn't awesome to know that once we drink of the water life can come back! our lives can begin to grow and the roots are restored.

just saying...........

i love you guys and gals.... and remember always keep your computer battery charged in case of poweroutages!
