I sit here typing on my phone, unable to wait till I have access to a laptop to share... This post from a missionary's blog... It broke my heart. Pray. Pray for them. I've been to Chad. I've seen first hand some of the sacrifices James and Sarah have had to make. But only some... Others we will never know of, until Jesus comes... And o how I long for Him to come. I pray that all we do isn't shed tears over this... May God convict us and not let go of us, until we heed His call on our lives to stop taking the easy way, and join those few who are paying the ultimate price. Wether through financial help, or through physically joining those serving overseas--however God calls-- just obey. Just obey. But most of all, pray. Pray for James and Sarah and all the others who are experiencing unspeakable pain. Pray that the God of peace Himself draws very near to them even now, and heals them and comforts them in the way that only He can... Come Jesus, please come...

  1. I don't know James and Sarah personally, just heard and read about them sometimes. It hurts just to think about what all they're going through right now... Makes me admire them even more for the sacrifices they are making to save the souls for Christ. It rebukes me... Am I doing everything God is calling me for? oh, I didn't know you've been to Chad! It must have been an amazing experience! I imagine it's all blogged?

    No, it's not blogged, I went there back in 2006, right before I started this blog...

  3. Ah, to bad it's not blogged... Would love to hear about your experiences there sometime :)
    And yes, God will answer us. He has a plan for us :). He is shaping, working on us, to make us just into a tool He needs for His vineyard... Our task is to let Him shape us...

  4. Sweet Sara--thank you for your comments on my blog...they are such a blessing. Truly. Praying that He is sustaining you, and that you are able to rejoice in His grace today. I think He is molding and working within us both, yes? May we be fashioned for His glory alone.

    With gratitude,

    1. To this day I can't remember how I came across your blog Melanie, but I am ever so glad I did...
      So glad.

      And i'm thankful to Him, for this fellowship and blessing we can share in, though we've never met, though mile, age, and time separate...still, His love binds hearts close.

      And o how He's used your words to bless.
      He's too good...
