Psalm 121:1-2 (NASB)
I will lift up my eyes to the mountains;
From where shall my help come?
My help comes from the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.
From where shall my help come?
My help comes from the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.

August 18: Update on Jonatán
The school year is off to a great start for
Jonatán. He’s excited! We can hardly put into words how wonderfully encouraging
teachers and staff have already been...
We are awaiting the results of the PET
scan, done earlier today. The family will be meeting with one of the doctors
tomorrow to discuss inserting the port for chemotherapy. Apparently, the
procedure will not be done tomorrow.
We are experiencing the peace of God that
truly surpasses all understanding.
On Sunday evening, the senior high youth
group from church presented a play on the life of Amy Carmichael (1867 to
1951), who spent 56 years ministering (without a furlough) in India. While
there, she wrote nearly countless hymns, poems, and books about her adopted
country and her beloved Lord Jesus Christ.
A quote on the church bulletin from one of
her works especially caught my attention:
It is not the sense of His presence, it is
the fact of His presence that is our strength and stay...
And when there is not
any feeling, we rest on His bare word:
“Lo, I am with you always, all the days,
and all the day long,” and are content.
