We all enjoyed being higher up at our meeting place since Ferd and the men worked so hard to lay the gravel. We no longer have to sit sideways to avoid mud puddles and cow dung everywhere! It was so nice. They hope to start the shelter in 2 weeks, after VBS is over. VBS takes ALL our time and energy so we cant plan on anything else next week
Today was a real good meeting. Of course, it is flaming hot, but the Lord sent such a cool breeze throughout the whole Bible study. I didnt have to use my hand fan once, which is amazing! The folks really listen and asked questions more today and even talked and responded to Ferd throughout the lesson. They are reading their Bibles that we gave them at home too as one lady was excited to share the story about the Rich man and Lazarus. She told it like it was our first time to hear it too..she was sooo excited.
That encouraged us so much to see that the Lord is working though sometimes I get blindsided by my tiredness, my health. I sometimes feel like " what's the point?" Satan has REALLY been discouraging me lately. It's been a huge attack, but after seeing their progress today, I am uplifted and the Lord knew just what I needed.
He also knows what the Bible study needs...a small van to pick up the people and a shelter. We are just waiting on Him..
