Visit from Ron/To Mexico with Love

"To walk with God in the high places we must lose our fear. Fear can only be lost in the desert, in the crucible of warfare, inferiority and internal struggle. In the place where only God can shelter. Only His comfort works. All is stripped bare and we come to rest in His goodness."  Graham Cooke  

Greetings from Mexico! Ron Graves from To Mexico with Love came down for a visit last week. I was so excited to see him. I want to thank all of the people who supplied the craft supplies for the girls, also for the financial support. When Ron came we went to a church in Polvorine named "The Journey" we were able to supply some food for the people of the church and the community. We were also able to pray for those in need of prayer with the help of our translators Danny and Frank. The prayer team will be coming down in November. We are also helping some families in the community of Cerro Azul, there is a family with five children that their grandmother is the primary care giver. With the help of volunteers and donations of supplies we will be able to repair her roof in September. We would also like to help her with a room expansion but that will depend upon donations and labor. I may be asking for support for material in the near future.  Our kids at the orphanage started school today. The two oldest girls are in Junior high in the 7th grade. The four other girls are in elementary school in grades 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th. It was a amazing to be able to experience their first day of school and all the preparation involved. Praise God for all of His help, strength and discernment but mostly for His perfect love. Much love and many blessings to all.

 I would like to leave you with words to ponder.  In His presence we get renewed, refreshed. To drink from the river of life, where love and life flow freely. To spread God's love to the needy, all of us are needy in one way or another. All of us need more of Him! Turn to your neighbor and love on them. God's love is for all of us! Regardless of race, education, religion, poor, rich or in between, believer, pre-believer. We all need and desire God's love. Whether we admit it or not. God is waiting, no one will ever be turned away from His perfect love. Be Blessed :)
