All I Can Do is Pray

After writing this post, we received so many emails of people encouraging us and letting us know that they are praying for us. It really is a comforting thought knowing that while we are sleeping here in Thailand, people are praying over there in the states. (11 hour time difference) We definitely feel the intensity of spiritual warfare increasing, so it's time to step it up in prayer too. Karb khun ma na kah. Thank you so much.

Since the robbery, we take locking up so much more seriously. John walked around the house and did a mock "break in". Unfortunately, we discovered just how easy it was and it was concerning. With little effort or noise, John was able to jiggle and tug on the window and it came unlocked! The window is loose in the track of the frame and it gives enough room to unlatch. The windows are fixed now and we are feeling much better.

Now we are beginning to miss our belongings. We are realizing just how much we used those things. Technology is a funny thing. Ultimately, we don't need it but it has become so useful in communication and expression that without it, we feel lost. I can't tell you how many times I have made mention of how I wanted to take a picture of this or that, but....oh yeah, we can't.

Some have mentioned how they wish they could do more to help us, but financially they are unable to and that all they can do is pray. Well, we don't take your prayers lightly and neither should you. We need them and feel them. It has been our desire to come here but to also take other people with us. So, when you sow into us by praying, you are coming along for the ride too. We love that. "All I can do is pray" shouldn't be said like it's a small thing.
