Thanks for the prayers and support! - God is in control

First off I want to thank all of you for your prayers and support! It has been great to hear from some of you!
The last few weeks have been an amazing experience. I have been blessed in so many ways and know that God is working inside of me! I know that all 3 of us have been challenged in many different ways in all sorts of areas of life! We have been pushed to the limits physically, emotionally, and spiritually!
I have seen what it means to really put your life in the hands of God, I have seen people willing to give up the comforts that you and I enjoy in the States to give God their life. I have seen people living on the garbage of others and people who have to get water out of a stream to make it through the day. I have seen people with sicknesses and injuries that you and I would have been at the doctor weeks ago but they can not even imagine seeing a doctor. I have seen people that live in “houses” smaller than my bedroom and they have water and sewage just running into their house. I have seen people who have nothing in their material life. I have seen children that have never seen a parent and probably never will. I have seen people that have given up careers in the States to give these kids some sort of support. I have seen kids call a 20 something girl "mom," she has stepped into their life and cared for them, given them a chance. I have seen kids that just want a parent figure in their life, hoping that someone will step up in someone way...either by just giving them some time and love or hoping to be adopted. I have seen people give others a chance to live again and people that are alive because someone that did not know stepped into their life to make a difference. I have seen people give without ceasing knowing that they are not ever going to get anything back. I have seen people just longing to be loved and longing for something more in their life.
This has been a time for me to realize once again how blessed and fortunate we are in the States. It has been a time of growing and turning to God for help. I know that amongst all of the chaos and problems that we have ran into that God has had His hand in all of it! I have learned once again what it means to lay if down for the glory of God.
