The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. Psalm 28:7

Beautiful Days and Normal Routine

The past few days have been beautiful!

Blue skies and sunshine all day with a nice breeze, well at least a breeze at my house.

Crystal clear skies at night with lots of stars shining. Last night I finally found the Big Dipper at 11pm right off my veranda, right in front of my face!

Yesterday, I had so many song requests on praise time that I could hardly squeeze them all in. Several phone calls came in, instead of the usual texts.

People praising God even though their circumstances aren't the best. Asking for prayer and letting us know that they pray for us daily! What a blessing to receive!

The past couple days have been filled with catching up on housekeeping duties and washing lots of laundry. Yesterday my loads were dry in 15 minutes.

Today we will visit with Pastor Lewis a little more, he is leaving tomorrow. I am also working on a new power point for the radio station that needs to be sent to a Doctor in the states. Please continue to pray for the radio, it is God's gift to the Belizean people and beyond to teach them and spread the word of God.

I took the dogs for a walk last night because I finally have a small route with hardly any stray dogs...but we always have to carry rocks just in case.
Mindy and Rio just strut along and love getting to go!

Yesterday the girls made banana bread with Gen & Jun Jun while I was at the radio. Turned out mighty good.

Poor JunJun cut down a poison tree at the mission building property last Friday......so I have been treating him for the last several days. His face is swollen bad especially around the eyes. He has rash on his arms and side and back.

I had pastor Bill go and collect the bark from the Gumbo Limbo tree because that is the antidote to the poison tree. You can rub the raw bark on your skin or boil it down for a while. So we did both, he was well enough to go to school today.

I researched and found that if you rub your skin down with the gumbolimbo tree first when you cut the poison tree you won't get the rash!

I'm finding that for most jungle problems there is an antidote close by.

Well God Bless and I will get some more photos posted this week.
