I am still here!

I did not intend to disappear for so long! Much has happened during my virtual disappearance, but I won't take a lot of space with a play-by-play of my life. I will, however, take a moment to thank Debbie, Gail, Scott, and all those behind the scenes who were sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit and came to our aid during this time of need. May your reward be rich!

As you may notice, my favorite websites are a bit different from before. Please check out "In the hedge with David J" and the accompanying YouTube site. As we become more and more willing and open to following God's lead and example, He lays burdens on our hearts and opens our eyes and minds to certain aspects of life. I have been both amazed and grateful at how subtle changes have led to great visions in my husband lately. God has blessed me with a wonderful husband and my husband with a great desire to be used of God.

Please continue to pray for us and our families. As is true for many of you, our way is unsure right now, but our faith stands firm in the knowledge that

Romans 8:26-28 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

²⁶ In the same way the Spirit also joins to help in our weakness, because we do not know what to pray for as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with unspoken groanings. ²⁷ And He who searches the hearts knows the Spirit's mind-set, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

²⁸ We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God: those who are called according to His purpose.

God knows better what we need than we do, and His timing is always perfect even if we have to wait. God always has a reason and a plan for our good, so we must learn to truly trust Him in every detail of our lives.

May you have a Jesus-filled day of prayer and praise today! Ask God who you can help in His name today. We must be His hands and feet if we really want to see people come to Christ!
