Just Saying…..

Saturday morning my great nephew and I made a Walmart run while Nana kept an eye on little sister. On our way home I said, “Hey, how about if I pray for you since you fell asleep on the couch before our prayer time last night?” He said, “ok.” So, I proceeded to pray for him and his day. Toward the end of the prayer I said, “I love you God, I love you Jesus, I love you Holy Spirit.” (Which I have always done with him, wanting him to realize our God is a Triune God.) I finished the prayer with a good, In Jesus Name, conclusion. When we got home and out of the car walking through the garage, he stopped and looked at me. He said, “Vic, you do know that the Holy Spirit is really God?” “Really!” I said and chuckled to myself.

Well, we are 11 days out from stepping on the plane to leave the country to Alicante, Spain. I want to thank all of you that continue to give towards missionary sponsorship. We only have 22 more missionaries to sponsor. Keep praying for those sponsorships and share the opportunity with those you know that have a heart for our missionaries. Go to www.purejoyinternational.org and scroll down to “donate.” It will be exciting to see how God answers our prayers for those sponsorships!

I am hearing from some of the missionaries about our upcoming conference. They are so excited. Excited to be encouraged and refreshed. Encouraged that they are going to get some rest, yet focused time on the LORD. Encouraged that they will be able to meet other missionaries that are serving in their part of the world. Encouraged to be staying in a nice hotel and having meals prepared by someone besides themselves! Ha,ha,ha,ha

And may I also remind us that we all need encouragement? Please take time to reach out to someone today that you may not have spoken to in awhile. Make a visit or even just send a text. You never know the difference God makes through those little acts of thoughtfulness.

His,
Vickie
