What a week this turned out to be. We were both so ill that we could not lift ourselves from the bed. This whole week we spent in the room and could only get us so far to get blood tests and back to bed. It turned out that we got a severe case of Typhoid. How we got it stays a mystery. There are so many possibilities as we do not live in the cleanest of places,hahaha. We had severe fevers hot and cold and just miserable overall.
So Lying in bed for a week is no joke at all. My body
ached so badly but could not work in my shop. So I am a bit behind schedule on
my Christmas toys. Need to get to it this week. This year is getting so quickly
to and end that we cannot keep track of it anymore. Almost Christmas and it
feels not like it.
Recently I am totally consumed by the fact that we
need to leave someday from here. One of our best friends are leaving in a few
months and seeing them packing up and leave, makes me extremely uncomfortable.
We got so used to life as a missionary in a foreign country that going home
does not sound so appetizing. Talk to my friend this morning, I realize how
hard it is to pack up and go and start from scratch again. The only thing that
we can do is to look up to God and what He wants for us, will be good. We
humans keep brainstorming options and plans, but God’s purpose prevails.
Proverbs 19:21
Thank you for praying with us. Being ill just remind
us that we only live in absolute grace of God. Continue to pray for our
healing.
Love
