I suppose that this has been the longest time ever that I haven't blogged since I created this blog site. But I don't think anyone reads it anymore anyway, so maybe it doesen't matter.

I moved to Queretaro, Mexico in early June and went on vacation to Oaxaca in mid-August. I truly had a blast; we went to the ocean and everything was totally great. All my family went except Dad. I came back from vacation to Queretaro to be a few days late to begin school (home school-CCI).

Now I am working on school work every day, from 7:30 AM to 3:15 PM and use the rest of the day to work on chores or leisure time. Despite the fact that I am missing a few books, I have managed to finish every thing and school work has not been stressful in the least.

I thank God for everything He's done in my life, He is so awesome. This coming monday, my mother and I will begin a course, teaching my little brother and cousin through this school year. Please be praying that God uses us to show His great love and mercy to them through our attitude and that He will help our teaching ability to reach it's highest potential.



I will try to write another day soon and post some pictures too!

God Bless you all and may ye be overcome by the love that is beyond all understanding!

Without Grumbling

     It is a troubling realization when we finally see that our deepest desires aren't always pure and our intentions aren't always the best. It is often too easy to sink in to the ways of the world. Why? Because we live in it and its currents tend to tug at our faith. It is so difficult for me to admit how imperfect I am. I like to think I can do anything, though in reality, I know I am utterly powerless. It's only human nature, I suppose, but it serves me nothing to pretend like I know everything.      All this to say that this spring semester has left me utterly tired and worn out. I have studied and worked my energy out and toward the last couple of weeks before finals, my personal devotions that I've always been so fond of, diminished quickly. I became tired and at times, hopelessly unwilling to spend time in the Word and in prayer. Part of me felt angry toward myself about it, but the other part remained foolishly apathetic. I didn't know what to do, so I di

MISSIONS

-
Today is my lil brother's birthday... but we celebrated his party on saturday! I will post some pictures later because this computer won't allow me to. And my cousin, a little girl, was born today at 1:00 am. Tomorrow my aunt Mary and I are leaving for Yospi, a place up in the mountains, deep in the heart of Queretaro where the Ottomi Indians live... They are very poor people but very hospitable. My aunt lived amongst them for 2 and a half years. She was there as a missionary. She had to live like them and dress like them in order for the people to accept her. Since then they have come to know God better and there are now several Christians there and a church is up and running. God has blessed them so much and we still keep in touch with them. This week we want to go to encourage them to keep pressing on in the things of the Lord. And encourage them not to give up... because it is very difficult for them. Most of the people do not have a means of transportation although there i

Culiacan, first week

This past week in Culiacan has been a great blessing. The first two days we spent a whole lot traveling to be able to get to a camp and that was exhausting! Then on Wednesday I was able to speak to several girls and pray for the people. It was a nice time in the Lord. God blessed the people and the team also. On thursday I stayed behind to pray and God really just used me and all the other 4 who stayed. He spoke to us through verses and visions. The great thing is that While I was reading in Exodus I think, about how God promises to send his angle before us, when the teams got back they told us they had seen a cloud in shape of an angel and they took a picture but whoever took it did not want to let me download it... but if I can get her to let me, I will next week. Then on Friday, two teams got together, mine and another and we had already gotten into the camp, but after a while, the owner arrived and kicked us out. So we left as quickly as we could so we could get started on another
