hey guys…it’s me…all is well here, just wanted to shout out to some people:
Andrea: I called you (i’m pretty sure it was your voicemail) from Rajamani’s phone yesterday at our leper colony and left you a message…I hope you got it…he sent you something in the mail last week and is waiting to hear if you get it…try calling him from your phone…if you can’t reach him, he will try again at a better time (evening for you, morning for him). He’s very VERY excited.
Anyone who has promised to sponser children at Asha: I don’t know what’s going on, but they aren’t getting your support money, and they NEED it…just a reminder, you cannot send it to Asha House, only to Alli’s church in tennessee, which if you don’t have the address for you can get from Andrea. They’re trying to raise 2 million dollars for new land, and it doesn’t help that they’re spending the little money they have supporting the kids you promised to support…so get to it!
Anywho, I wasn’t sure what to share with you, a lot of things have happened in the last few weeks, so I’ll just send this with a devotional i journaled to the Lord on tuesday the 11th. It was after reading Luke 12:
How I have fooled myself into believing that I understand you, Lord. How I have heard your words and to myself claimed to comprehend them. You are still a mystery- unsolvable in my weak human mind. Your thoughts are not my thoughts, your ways are not my ways. And the more I seek you, the mystery only deepens. O fathomable indescribable unearthly, unfarmiliar, trasnscendent, divine love- more vast than the infinate universe, stretching farther than the east is to the west, o mysterious force that keeps the stars apart- I have fallen for you. Come to me now, for I am in love with you and cannot breathe without you. You are my soul’s sufficiency and this is my simple devotion: that over and over and over and over again I will seek your lovely face. I will chase after you and follow you wherever you lead. I am yours for life. And I lay my life- all of my desires, my passions, my plans, my skills, and talents which you have given me, my insecturities and fears, my failings and the hidden secrets within me, all that I am- down at your feet. I bring my fragrant oil and my tears, O King, and the whore that I have made myself to be will wash your feet and kiss them for it is there that I find healing and restoration. Master, I am your servant that waits in eager anticipation through all watches of the night for your footsteps outside the door. I will trust you and wait upon you. Father, I am your orphan. Take me in and forgive me, protect me, clothe me in your righteousness and feed me with your soft whispers, bathe me in your grace and nourish me with your love. I am yours and you are mine, I am yours and you are mine.
Anywho, please remember to pray for the 2 million that Asha needs for land…and I will write again in two weeks.
Laura:)
