Thursday......

I had an amazing time staying home with my daughter Alianna. We played games, laughed, talked to grandma,grandpa on Skype, and miraculously kept the house clean! Meanwhile Katherine was off with our short term missionaries to the Pueblito orphanage. I'm sure there having a great time, the director of the orphanage expressed how happy she is over the past few days of activities. I'm sure its going to be a little emotional today as Lynea is leaving us next week, and today being her final day of activities with the kids. It's been a year since Katherine began establishing a relationship with the orphanage, Costa Rica is very strict with the welfare of the children, even christian organizations are given a hard time getting in to do activities. Since Katherine began doing activities at the orphanage, it has allowed for other missionaries to get in and minister, but this is not about who gets credit. The message here is simply when God wants something done he opens the doors to get it done, now what we do with those opportunities is another story. The question is, "are you a talker or a doer?" Faith without works is dead, if you don't act out your ministry(talents), then your not exercising faith that God truly called, and equipped you for that ministry. Let today be the day you begin to walk in faith!
