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

Longing

I woke up this morning with a feeling of longing and thought I would share what was passing through my mind.  
I was longing for a place to hike freely for miles, a real store to shop in (if I had the $), a hot water tank, a clothes dryer, a dishwasher, the air conditioners to be in faster, a truck that has no problems, a real health food store, vegetarian food options, and a trip to the Cayes!!
 
Ok that being said it sounds like complaining but it's not.......I lived with all those conveniences for years before coming to Belize.
 
There are many things that I love about being here and don't mind the harder lifestyle but for some reason I was thinking on how much easier it would be to have those things again.
 
Maybe God doesn't want easy for us?
God has done wonderful spiritual things for our family and we all pitch in and work together everyday just to accomplish simple daily tasks that back home were done with a push of a button.
 
Praise the Lord for His watchful care and the numerous and continual blessings He bestows upon us!
