Good evening!
So tempted to start off with news on the extended
lockdown but held me back and tried to remember there are other things
going on too. We were able to go walk on a deserted back road near the lake
yesterday with the boys and the dogs. I went to Noak first in the morning and
arrived late at home so we went walking near lunchtime. Hot, Hot, Hot !! But we
managed to reach the lake and could walk a bit of the way with a breeze. Mooze,
our husky/golden retriever mix overheated and went straight for a mud bath.
Noak was sick this past week, her face was swollen
from an infected tooth. She did not take her meds and by Friday she had a fever
and not doing well. Praying and helping her to take her meds and she was back
to herself by Saturday. She is so sweet, buying me some bread and water, asking
me to eat and rest before I go home. Please pray for her.
We’re listening to the "Pineapple Story"
last night with our boys. We've listened to this many years back and it was
such a good reminder. Anton was really touched by the part where the tribal guy
told the missionary "You've become a Christian" when the missionary
stopped being angry at them for stealing his pineapples. Listening to him
sharing so openly and honestly of his failures and how God so patiently taught
him to let go of his rights challenged us again. He ends the story with the
question of what you have to let go of, what control you need to give over to
God. I think our biggest struggle on where to let go and to trust God
completely is with Gideon. Please pray for us in this. Watch it here if
you did not hear it yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nt23gnwjdsU
Some news from Judy Johnson:
I just wanted to check in with everyone.
The change in Judy's chemo medication seems to be a good one. Her skin is
healed and she seems to be feeling better. It is so good to talk to her and
hear her laughing again. You all know what that sounds like. Keep the prayers
coming and reach out to her. She loves hearing from you. Thanks again.
Thank you very much for praying for us. We pray that
in these difficult times you will experience God’s helping hands.
Love
Rossouw-clan
