Good evening you all
We were off to the jungle again and this time Jonan
accompanied us. The road was shockingly easier as they put in a huge road
halfway into the jungle. It goes through the worst part of the jungle so we
made for good timing this trip.
People are happier this time due to the rain, the
weather plays a crucial role in Cambodia. The farmers started to plant cassava
and are pretty busy. Most of the men are out and about working the land. You
hear the familiar sounds of the machines pumping water to look for gold. Now
all the holes are full of water and everyone works hard.
We just get scolded because we were away for so long.
They know we come more regularly but this time was quite a stretch. We need to
make more time for these beautiful people. Please pray with us for a small type
of school for the children. Before there was a school but due to corruption it
stopped. Now we need to get the process started again. Things like this can be frustrating
and take a lot of time and red tape. It is sad to see the young girls with
babies, while they still are children. Education is not the number 1 priority
in life as they need to work and earn a living. It is understandable. If you
stay so far away from the local school, the children need a place to stay while
attending school. It is not possible due to finances.
Pray for:
Marie is still in the hospital and still they do not
know what is wrong with her. We can just speculate but in the meantime, we pray
for a miracle.
Please pray for Ouma Paula as she is in pain. Pray
that the pain will be manageable.
Ovaltine from ROL church is not doing well. It is a
matter of time before he will be with the Lord.
Uncle Somaad (clean) is doing well and his wounds look
great. The anti is taking good care of him.
We are holding onto this verse for now. Love to you
all
So we’re not giving up. How could we! Even though
on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the
inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding
grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times,
the lavish celebration prepared for us. There’s far more here than meets the
eye. The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we
can’t see now will last forever. 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 MSG
