Lots of Flu Going Around…

Not sure how things are in your part of the world, but the flu is taking over here in Arkansas and obviously lots is going on with the Coronavirus around the world. I personally have been isolating myself due to some surgery coming up in the next couple of weeks. It’s really been nice. I didn’t realize I needed the isolation so much. (ha,ha,ha) But, for the last couple of weeks I have lived between our home and my office, which is only about a quarter of a mile from our home. My longest trips away are to my Aunt Myrna’s and to our ‘Portugal Prayer’ time at my home church 25 minutes down the road once a week.

Speaking of Portugal, we have 46 missionary women signed up with 4 spots still open. Please get the word out!  Also, thank you so much for your missionary support for this trip. We had 3 more missionary women sponsored last week, which brings us to only 7 more needing sponsorship. Thank you all, as you continue to give.

May I leave you with a word picture from Deuteronomy? God is addressing the children of Israel.
His Word says…
Deuteronomy 11:8-12 (ESV)
“You shall therefore keep the whole commandment that I command you today, that you may be strong, and go in and take possession of the land that you are going over to possess, and that you may live long in the land that the LORD swore to your fathers to give to them and to their offspring, a land flowing with milk and honey. For the land that you are entering to take possession of it is not like the land of Egypt, from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and irrigated it, like a garden of vegetables. But the land that you are going over to possess is a land of hills and valleys, which drinks water by the rain from heaven, a land that the LORD your God cares for. The eyes of the LORD your God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year."

Did you catch God’s promise of provision when we obey His commands? We will have strength to do what He has called us to do. Forget your past (Egypt), where you did things in your own strength. He will make provision from heaven. He will take care of that which He has provided for you because He cares for you!!!!

Never think that our God is an uncaring God. He loves you! Trust Him!

His,
Vickie
