And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard?
And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?
And how can anyone preach unless they are sent?
As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We are ALL privileged to be in fellowship together as we take part in the Life Changing Work that is happening on Mercy Ships.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I have come to believe that it is not what "I" am doing, but what the Holy Spirit is doing in me as I serve and follow Jesus. HE is doing a GREAT Work IN Me!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">"<span style="color: blue;">He has chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love" (Ephesians 1:4)</span></span><i style="color: blue; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">", and have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him" </i></div>

There are rumors flying around that we are here to harm them, take out their organs, hold them captive and practice medicine on them. Many of the patients have shared lengthy stories of myths and lies surrounding us. Many come from the North, from uncivilized villages, never seeing "white people" let alone all this technology. As they step foot on Mercy Ship grounds our hope is that they are immediately greeted with love and respect! By the time it comes to get the consent form signed, trust has been gain and signatures come willingly. </span></td></tr>

I pray that during this season of celebrating the birth of Christ that ALL will know that Christ is the Lord, thy Savior and thy Redeemer, the Mighty One! (Isaiah 60:16)</div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: 'SF Optimized', system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, '.SFNSText-Regular', sans-serif; letter-spacing: -0.11999999731779099px; margin-bottom: 6px;">

I pray that ALL will believe and trust in the inspired Word of God from John 1.......... “In the beginning was the Word (Jesus) and the Word (Jesus) was with God and the Word (Jesus) was God. He (Jesus) was in the beginning with God. </div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: 'SF Optimized', system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, '.SFNSText-Regular', sans-serif; letter-spacing: -0.11999999731779099px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">

All things were made through him (Jesus) and without him was not anything made that was made. </div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: 'SF Optimized', system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, '.SFNSText-Regular', sans-serif; letter-spacing: -0.11999999731779099px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">

<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px;">
In him (Jesus) was life, and the life was the light of men. The light (Jesus) shines in the darkness (humanity) and the darkness has not overcome it. (Jesus is bigger than the darkness!!)</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness, to bear witness about the light (Jesus), that all might believe through him. He was not the light (Jesus), but came to bear witness about the light (Jesus). </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
The true light (Jesus), which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. (THIS IS WHAT WE ARE CELEBRATING) He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. (Have you received Jesus into your life?)</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<i>BUT ALL WHO DID RECEIVE HIM, WHO BELIEVED IN HIS NAME,</i> he gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God!! </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
And the Word (God) became flesh (Jesus) and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, FULL OF GRACE AND TRUTH.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
For from his fullness we have all (Believers in Jesus) have received, grace upon grace. For the law was given through Moses (set of guidelines to live your life by): GRACE and TRUTH came through Jesus Christ!</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made known (Jesus).....God became flesh and blood for us, JESUS! </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
This is a season to celebrate God becoming "man" so that we can SEE Him. I so Hope YOU SEE Him (God as man, Jesus) this season of celebration!</div>

If you do not KNOW him (Jesus) or have not put your full trust in him (Jesus) I pray that you will read on through the Books (Gospels) of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. In this season of celebrating HIS (Jesus) birth, I pray that you will come to KNOW HIM and trust HIM (Jesus) with all your heart and soul! I PRAY THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE JESUS IN YOUR HEART AND GO, FOLLOW HIM </div>

Wow! I look back on my blog and realize it has been awhile
since I wrote. I pondered the question of Why? Why so long since I blogged? The
answer that came to me is that I’ve been busy “unfolding”, putting off the old
and putting on the new!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Lots of praying,
reading, growing and watching how God works <span style="font-family: Wingdings; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;"><span style="mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span></span>
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My mind is filled with HIS wisdom, HIS Truth. My God has
taught me what is from him and what is not. He has revealed to me the spiritual
battle that rules this world and how to navigate through with HIS wisdom and
power. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’ve prayed for the
ability to "SEE" His Truth. I’ve prayed for clarity and
purpose of life. I’ve prayed for wisdom. I’ve prayed for peace. I’ve prayed for
grace and mercy. I’ve prayed for forgiveness of past ways. I’ve prayed and asked
for God to show me LOVE, true LOVE.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Today I sit praising God!!! HE has answered my prayers!!! He
has placed me in a variety of situations that he could teach me these
attributes. He has placed the right people in front of me to guide and teach
me. He has humbled my heart and chipped off the pride so that I can "SEE" His Truth. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I walk in confidence knowing that whatever tomorrow brings,
My God will never leave me or forsake me. I know 100% that I can trust the
wisdom that HE gave me in scripture to guide my life! I know if I have
questions, HE will answer. I know that my God is molding me into HIS image! I
know that I will spend eternity in HIS presence!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now, finally at 55 years of age, I journey with a sense of
Peace, Clarity, Purpose, adventure and the Desire to Serve My God!!!! Some may
think this is a time of retirement, I say that it is a time to LIVE!!!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I send out HUGE THANK
YOU’S<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>to all that are praying and financially
supporting <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>me and the mission of Mercy
Ships!!! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Lives are being
TRANSFORMED DAILY, MINUTE BY MINUTE!!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Patients are SEEING HIS LOVE!!!</div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
We are all blessed as
we serve our God!!!<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: -webkit-standard, serif;">A group of us ladies began
a Bible Study and chose to begin with Ephesians. The first week, Chapter 1.
I read, prayed and read again. I even pulled a few commentaries to add to
the wisdom that Paul was attempting to share with the people of </span>Ephesus<span style="font-family: -webkit-standard, serif;">. Then,
on the last day of the sail, Ephesians 1:4 stood out to me and these words came
alive.........</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times;">For me, the sail has been a challenging
time, </span><i style="font-family: Times;"><u>a time of cleansing my soul and humbling!</u></i><span style="font-family: Times;"> I was assigned
to work in the Dining Room for the last four weeks. My first thought was "no problem, I can do this". My thoughts quickly changed the first day. We started our
days at 5:15am, set up, served, and washed dishes for 200+ crew 3 times a day. After each meal,
I was hot, sweaty and exhausted. It was only through the Grace of God that I
could keep a smile on my face and keep up the pace. We were a team of four with
only one having experience in this role. We were blessed to have 2 extra helpers
every day, but this also created a challenge. This meant training two new
people everyday and being faced with "humbling" myself knowing that there are multiple ways of getting the job done!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Times;">I admit that I went through a period of pridefulness that ate at my soul.</span><span style="font-family: Times;">
</span><span style="font-family: Times;">Rambling thoughts included why me? Why should “I” have to do the dishes,
why am “I” reassigned and not doing something related to nursing. Why was "I" not involed in the team building trainings and nursing meetings? Why was “I”
the one who is filled with years of nursing experience and a master’s degree not
chosen for lead positions?</span><span style="font-family: Times;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times;">I admit
feelings of envy, jealousy, anger, frustration and feeling like I was not being
used appropriately. Yet, in the midst of the sail, God broke me down and
humbled me. I was reminded that HE Chose Me to be Holy and Blameless in HIS
Sight. It really does not matter what “role” I am doing, it is more about seeing,
learning, growing and engaging IN JESUS! Doing what I already know how to do
(aka, nursing) is not really pushing me outside of my comfort zone and
providing me opportunities for growth in HIM. The use of wisdom is not in the
job itself, the “wisdom” is the ability to get the job done, regardless of what
it is, reflecting the image of God! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Today and everyday I am so Thankful for HIS Amazing Grace!!!</div>
I deserve none of this abundance that surrounds me, yet everyday I am blessed with more JOY :)<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Blessed in the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in his Law doth he meditate day and night.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Psalm 1:1-3</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
What I have come to believe and trust is that God desires to inhabit <u>each</u> of our hearts and lives 100%. In return, HE fills us and surrounds us with HIS LOVE :)<br />
<br />
I am reminded of this as I read through Psalms and also through the book "Boundaries" by Cloud & Townsend. I like the following that David speaks of in Psalm 51:6<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
"<i><span style="color: blue;">Surely you desire truth in the inner parts; you teach me wisdom in the inmost place." </span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
IF I am open to allowing HIM in "all parts" of my life, HE will show me ALL of Him!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Townsend and Cloud share "The good news is that when God brings us out from the alien land he does not leave us untaught. He rescued his people from the Egyptians, but, he taught them his principles and ways. These proved to be LIFE for them, <span style="color: blue;"><i>b</i></span><u><i><span style="color: blue;">ut, they had to learn them, practice them, and fight many battles to internalize these principles of faith."</span></i></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In addition, they share "God has probably led you out of captivity also. Whether is was from a dysfunctional family, the world, your own religious self-righteousness, or the scatteredness of being lost, he has been your redeemer. <span style="color: blue;"><i>But what he has secured needs to be possessed. The land to which he has brought you has certain realities and principles. <u>Learn and set forth in his Word, and you'll find his kingdom a wonderful place to live."</u></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In short (my take)......See, Learn, Grow and Engage in Jesus and you will See, Know and LIVE in the abundance of our AMAZING, LOVING CREATOR!</div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">I was reassigned to work in the dining room for a month prior to the hospital opening. I now have a much greater appreciation for the "work" that goes on behind the scenes!! Hard work and long days, but truly blessed to be able to do the job with strength, energy and a Smile :)<br />

<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I've said it before and will share again, Mercy Ships is truly a "God Ordained" vessel utlized to Share the Love of Jesus in the poorest areas of Africa. The free surgical care that is provided to the patients is life changing for all. The whole reason the ship functions is out of LOVE from others! Each that enters the ship, provides their own funds to support the mission so that FREE care can be given. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Those of us that have committed to one year or more with Mercy Ships are required to attend a 4 week training in Texas. Of course my first thought was "Why?" as I have already served on the ship twice. The necessity was apparent as we dove into learning about the foundations of Mercy Ships the first week. In order to keep the "system" flowing well, there needs to be consistency in "ways of doing". Volunteers are blessed to have many options to serve, from 2 weeks to many years. But, in order to offer this flexibility, there needs to be a steady stream of volunteers woven through a variety of departments that are trained to be the "cultural gatekeepers" to allow for a consistent follow through of the core values of Mercy Ships.</span></div>

My time was well spent! We were in class Monday through Friday for 4 weeks. The wisdom was intense, deep and personal! We explored our selves, our cultures and the culture of others; our personality styles; confiict management, and learned how to have crucial conversations :). By the end, we had a pretty solid grasp of living in "community" and how to manage the diversity. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Key Take Away......."It's not wrong, It's just different".......the key was accepting and learning to live and work amongst so many differences!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Each of us had to do a final project. The direction was to pull together four weeks of intense learning into a 2-3 minute presentations. I LOVED the diversity! Some worked in groups and did skits, some did dramas, rap songs and others took on a more serious tone. ALL were excellent!!</div>

explored the “Kingdom of God” and what its looks like to “Advance” the Kingdom
of God. We pulled apart the 10 commandments and truly opened up a much larger
perspective of what God was trying to teach us through each. Woven through was
God’s amazing LOVE for us. He demonstrates HIS Merciful LOVE for us as HE sets
up boundaries in which we are to live. HE knows the big picture of life. HE knows the human heart. HE knows the outcomes of our choices and then
sets us free to live with FREE WILL. As we follow within the boundaries of HIS
commandments, we learn to walk in LOVE and advance HIS LOVE throughout the
world. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Candara;">Then, midweek, we advanced
to applying HIS commandments into every domain of life including Government;
Economics; Church; Science & Technology; Family; Education; Communication,
and Arts & Entertainment. We were required to read the book “The Old
Testament Template” by Landa Cope. I read it twice, took many notes and
absorbed the wisdom that she addressed. I was going along in class today,
loving all the wisdom that was shared, and then we came to family. This one hit
way too close to my heart and I had to excuse myself, as I could not keep
myself composed.</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Candara;">Through some tears, and
rampant journaling I remembered Gods Word sharing “Come to me all ye are weary
and heavy laden and I will give you rest”.
I have come to believe that HE is giving me rest! HE has brought me to
Mercy Ships to “Live and Love in Community with like minded people. He has
placed me where I can LOVE without resistance. Patients are in need of God’s
LOVE, and I desire to LOVE. It’s a WIN/WIN for all of us. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Candara;">For those who do not know
me, I grew up in an environment that did not know the love of God. We said we
“loved” each other, yet it was mixed with so much confusion and conflict
instead of peace and joy. I was that undisciplined, wild girl running around
looking for love in all the wrong places. I settled for whatever gave me a
glimpse of love. The outcome was years of trying to glean “love” out of
non-loving thoughts, behaviors and actions. True, Godly love was never
cultivated in me, thus, I did not have the ability to cultivate it within my
own family. The outcome of course, has been lots of pain, sadness and a broken
family unit. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Candara;">Then, one day, 14 years
ago, I heard the gospel. I learned about the LOVE of God and have been soaking
up HIS absolute truth ever since. I love the verse when Jesus says ”Come, follow
me”. I hear him saying, Come, follow me. I will forgive you of the past. I will
give you a new perspective. I will clean up your heart and reveal TRUE LOVE to
you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Candara;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Candara;">Psalm 51 resonates so well
with me at this point in my life!! This is the “time” HE is cleaning me up,
blotting out my transgressions, washing away my iniquity, cleansing me from my
sin, and cleansing me with hyssop. He is allowing me to hear joy and gladness
and renewing a steadfast spirit in me. He is creating in me a pure heart and
promises never to leave my side! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';"><span style="color: blue; font-size: small;">The Sovereign Lord has filled me with his Spirit.<br />
He has chosen me and sent me<br />
To bring good news to the poor,<br />
To heal the broken-hearted,<br />
To announce release to captives<br />
And freedom to those in prison.<br />
He has sent me to proclaim<br />
That the time has come<br />
When the Lord will save his people<br />
And defeat their enemies.<br />
He has sent me to comfort all who mourn,<br />
To give to those who mourn in Zion<br />
Joy and gladness instead of grief,<br />
A song of praise instead of sorrow.<br />
They will be like trees<br />
That the Lord himself has planted.<br />
They will all do what is right,<br />
And God will be praised for what he has done.<br />
They will rebuild cities that have long been in ruins.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

They will take care of your flocks<br />
And farm your land and tend your vineyards.<br />
And you will be known as the priests of the Lord,<br />
The servants of our God.<br />
You will enjoy the wealth of the nations<br />
And be proud that it is yours.<br />
Your shame and disgrace are ended.<br />
You will live in your own land,<br />
And your wealth will be doubled;<br />
Your joy will last forever.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

This question Haunts me all the time........"What if" we did not go? What if "I" was in need, or my sons were in need, and those with the resources did not come to help? I tremble at the thought of being able to help, but choosing not to! That would definitely cause me insomnia!!!</div>

We do not have to be overwhelmed with a world full of need. We can make a difference one person at a time :)</div>

<span style="font-size: 14pt;">My ramblings of
today………………..A heavy Heart with a Renewed Perspective!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 14pt;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">These ramblings stem from LIFE......LIFE home and LIFE abroad.....Lots of LIFE, People and Observations! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Some
people I run into come from that “happy home” that is filled with love, good,
sound teaching, loving discipline, and filled with joy and laughter. These
people are able to “go out” into the world and LOVE! They bring JOY, Grace,
Kindness and Mercy. They exhibit self-control, are flexible and adaptable to
many different situations. They are accountable for their actions and create
very little drama around them. They have learned effective coping strategies,
they share their sadness, they know when to laugh and when to cry. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">YES, there are people “out there” just
like this!! I have met them, they are genuinely good people raised with a
strong foundation of LOVE!! <o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">It
is the LOVE described in 1Corinitihains 13:4-7. It is LOVE that is patient and
kind; Love that does not envy or boast; Love that is not proud or rude: Love
that is not self seeking or easily angered; Love that takes no account of
wrongs; Love that has no pleasure in evil and rejoices in truth; Love that
bears all things, and endures all things. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">I am

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">I long to be one of “those
people”, BUT the reality is I did not come from that strong foundation of love,
nor did my forefathers. Thus, I come from a generation of<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“survivors”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We “survivors” did the best we could and reacted to the world according
to how we saw everyone else react. We coped with LIFE using a variety of
crutches including drugs, alcohol, sex, food addictions, lust, envy, jealously,
fighting, anger, passive-aggressiveness, impulsiveness, gossip, greed, pride
and delusions of grandeur. We were tough, hardheaded, simple-minded or just the
opposite, passive, quiet, disengaged and introverted. We could “do life” on our
own. We did not need wisdom, we already knew it all. We said “I love you” all
the time, yet it was mixed with everything BUT love. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Life was filled with conflict and confusion. Our
lives reflected the continuous drama associated with these behaviors. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

confusion that I have been fighting my entire life. I share openly because I
believe this “battle” effects the majority of society. My heart breaks for this
fallen world! I know the pain that lack of true love causes. ALL of the broken
pieces are due to behaviors that are the outcome of lack of love. We, have
contributed to this broken world. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt;">The Good News is, we can also
take an active part in coming alongside and creating renewal. To heal this
world, we have to walk in LOVE. We must know and believe that True, REAL LOVE
only comes from our Creator, God!! HE has given us the TRUTH for life in HIS
WORD! He shows us story after story the effects of the human heart that lacks love.
He tells us what NON-LOVE, evil is. He teaches how non-loving behaviors will
creep into our lives and attack our families. When we trust, believe and walk
in obedience to HIS way, our hearts are renewed and changed. We can see the
TRUTH come alive. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

I say to those “good” people, continue with the wisdom that you were raised
with. DO NOT be naïve and take your upbringing of good, sound wisdom and love
for granted and get caught up into following the culture. Just because the
“culture” does it, does not mean that it right. In LIFE, there is a slippery
slope that can quickly grab hold and pull you into a downward spiral. I say this
boldly because I have <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>watched it happen.
In my “renewed” walk, I have chosen to mix with those with a good foundation,
yet have seen them get sucked in because they truly did not know or understand
the effects of “NON-LOVING” behaviors. Be careful!! KNOW Gods ways, not the
world’s ways</span><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"> </span><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Wingdings; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: Arial; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;"><span style="mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span></span><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">I left the United States at a time of political turmoil. The election period was brutal. To this day, there is so much unrest, fear and a general feeling of loss of control. People are angry and fearful, attacking one another both physically and verbally. Families dynamics were broken and heated arguments continue to escalate. So much time is spent pointing fingers at others “differences” in opinions and not enough time accepting the reality that this is a broken, fallen world!! This is a period of history that everyone desires to “be happy” and are trying to control their situations. When “happiness” is interrupted, many fight any way they can to get it back, even if it bringing harm to others around them.</span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;">You might think of “oppression” in third world countries, but we, in First World countries are weighed down as well with this false sense of the need for continued “happiness”. We live to create happiness and become so bogged down in attempt to get there that we miss the “big picture” of life. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">We miss that we are created for a purpose! The purpose is not a daily gain of happiness. Our purpose, as we share in the Lords prayer is “</span><b style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">for His Kingdom to come and HIS will be done on earth as it is in heaven</b><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">”. The earth is the Lord’s, not ours. We do not take it with us.

We may not all have material gain, what we all have in us are LOVE, Grace, Mercy, Patience, Kindness, Forgiveness and Self-Control.

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">Each time I leave Africa, my eyes are wide open to the overwhelming “oppression”, the sense of being weighed down in body and mind.

Our weighing down is this false pursuit of “happiness” to give us contentment. </span></div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">Perhaps one of the most JOYFUL days......This is Robert, the Bible Man! He is a MAN of God, completely sold out for Christ and filled with the Passion to provide Bibles and Share the Word of God to anyone that will listen! He travels for miles going from village to village getting the Word of God out! I was blessed to spend the day with him and Beth as they shared the Gospel at the local prison. On the way there, He broadcasted the Gospel from the speakers on top of the truck. I sat in the front seat and waved to everyone along the way. Of course, everyone smiled at this "white" woman waving to them!!<br />I was so amazed observing little Beth sharing the WORD with the Prisoners. I think her LOVE and Passion for God overflows from her and causes "AWE" in those that she teaches! These men had their Bibles and many were taking notes. I believe that could have sat there all day listening to God's Word for their lives!<br />Praise God for Robert and Beth!!! </span></td></tr>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">So Beth said we needed to be to the bus station by 7:30 as it takes 4 hours to get to Accra. OK, I followed along assuming the bus would leave shortly after. Nope, three hours later we were still sitting there waiting for the bus to fill up with passengers. The bus was able to squeeze in 12 people and would not leave until it was filled. Men would sit in the seats as decoys, making you think the bus was almost filled. It was a competition among the bus drivers to get their buses filled first, thus lots of arguing going on around us. In the meantime, we were getting hungry. Hmmmmm? What to eat? the choices were found on the heads of those selling the food. So many choices.........hard boiled eggs, meat pies, bread, frozen yogurt, yams,.......over the course of three hours we chose them all! I even went back for seconds!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: small;">A little while later, our bellies were full, we were hot, sweaty and tired......Beth pulled a scripture from Psalms that said that it was OK to pray out to God and complain and ask him to meet our need.......So she did, O Lord, we are hot, tired and sweaty. We desire to get back to the House of Hope before dark, please O Lord, Please fill this bus up. There is only one more seat left, please O Lord, please fill this seat! .............truly, less than 30 seconds later, a man jumped on and we were off!!!!! Thank you Lord!!!!!</span></td></tr>

These lovely ladies have been a tremendous joy to care for. We witnessed amazing transformation from admission to discharge. They arrived solely trusting in God and walking in faith. They entered the big white ship hopeful for a new life, hopeful for a cure. They entered frightened and unsure of all of the "white people". Truly, some of the ladies from "up country" have never seen a "white person" before. Some were very shy and timid. All in need of translators. Some required 3 different translation from English to French, to Fon, Bereba and Yoruba. There was always a patient that would step up and translate for another. The love, bonding and genuine care and respect for each other was heartwarming. Multiple times throughout the day and evening we would get the ladies up to exercise. They would walk the halls singing and dancing! Such a BEAUTIFUL SOUND TO HEAR!!!! </div>

The ladies typically stay with us 2-3 weeks. At discharge they are given beautiful dresses to celebrate their "NEW" life free of continuous leakage. You can see the amazing JOY that radiates from each one of these ladies. </div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>I always refer to ship life as "LIFE on Steroids" because we enter into quick, intense relationships so quickly. All guards are down. It is very difficult to hide or wear a mask. We eat, sleep, play and work together. Typically, crew that have never spoke to you still know all about you. There is little room for "not being seen". </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: Times; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> We are blessed with meeting people from all over the world, which means many differing "perspectives" of life and ways of doing. This, I found is such a blessing. Without these perspectives; cultures, families and life can become very isolated and oppressed. Our worldviews can become so limited based solely on what we know from a little slice of life in our hometown. This, to me, is truly dangerous. </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: Times; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>We see faith, hope and intense LOVE in action. We witness miracles every day. Every patient comes with a story of faith, hope and healing. Their stories are often formed from lives of long-suffering, yet they had faith and hope that a time would come for healing. </span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: Times; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"> The African worship on the ship is continuous. So many Africans are “spiritually rich”. They must rely on God for food for their table everyday. They SEE <u>daily </u>God’s answers to their prayers. Most live in community, helping one another. If food is left over, they share with the neighbors. I love this verse from scripture.......</span></div>

<br />
I was reminded of these words as I was searching about the true meaning of Baptism. They really hit home with me, thus I asked Andrea to read at the start of this glorious celebration!!<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">This indeed is the experience of those
who, as true believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, intelligently obey His command
to be baptized.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Are you a true believer in Him? If so,
have you obeyed His Word in this matter? </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Remember: “if you love me, keep my commandments.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Your obedience will not only bring great pleasure to the heart of your Lord but
it will also be a giant step forward in the pathway of genuine Christian
happiness.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">How soon that joy fades for many. Although
the reason escapes them, it is only too apparent to others. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Baptism is a matter
of the heart as well as an outward profession. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The truly baptized believer is
the one whose life shows that the flesh, the old nature, has been put in the
place of death. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">This is accomplished by the enablement of the Holy Spirit
alone, and results in the joy of the Lord.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: center; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">It was not only because he had obeyed the
Lord and publicly identified himself with His Lord. It was also because he had
come to the end of a long search.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">God had begun to work in his heart.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> There
came a desire to know God in a personal way. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The sense of guilt had grown. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">There was a deep longing for peace of conscience and peace with God. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In the
religions of Ethiopia he had found no answers. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Perhaps it was this that brought
him to Jerusalem. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">He had found no answer there either.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> There was religion with
its rituals. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">But it was empty. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">There was nothing to bring peace and forgiveness
and salvation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Still searching, he turned homeward. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Then
it happened. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">God directed him to a prophetic word in holy scripture penned
hundreds of years earlier but fulfilled just months ago.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>“He
was led as a sheep to slaughter; And as a Lamb before its shearer is silent, So
He does not open His mouth. In humiliation His judgment was taken away; Who
shall relate His generation? For His life is removed from the earth.” And the
eunuch answered Philip and said, “Please tell me, of whom does the prophet say
this? Of himself, or of someone else?” And Philip opened his mouth, and
beginning from this Scripture he preached Jesus to him.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The eunuch
learned that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of God, who had come to earth to
die. The inquirer was told that the death of Jesus Christ was a substitutionary
death. </span></div>

<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The earnest searcher also learned that on
the basis of the death of Christ for his sins God offered forgiveness and
salvation to all men. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In a simple but significant step of faith the traveler
believed that Jesus was indeed the very Son of God who had died for him and he
began at that moment to trust in Him and His atoning death for the forgiveness
of his sin and God’s salvation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The long search had ended.</span></div>

<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> Little did he
realize that in reality all the while it was the Lord who had been seeking him. </span><br />

<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">God became his heavenly
Father and he became a child of God. </span></div>

<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Sin was forgiven and salvation was

<br />
<div style="color: #5b6265; font-family: arial;">
The <strong>village of Ganvie</strong>, in Benin, is the only human settlement in the world, built on stilts, in the middle of a lake, several kilometers from the nearest shore.</div>
<div style="color: #5b6265; font-family: arial;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #5b6265; font-family: arial;">
But people don’t just go ahead and build themselves a home, in the middle of a lake, they must have a serious reason. And the reason for the existence of Ganvie can be traced back to the 18th century, when a peaceful African tribe, the Tofinu, tired of running from the slaver tribe of Dom Homey, decided to build themselves a home, on Lake Nokoue.</div>
<div style="color: #5b6265; font-family: arial;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #5b6265; font-family: arial;">
The Dom Homey believed a terrible demon lived in the lake, and their ruthless warriors dared not set foot in its waters. The Tofinu had finally found their peace. But fast forward to present day,and the people of Ganvie are still reluctant to go on solid ground, although the threat of slavery is only a distant memory. They’ve ground accustomed to living on the water, and wouldn’t abandon their unique lifestyle, for anything.</div>
<div style="color: #5b6265; font-family: arial;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #5b6265; font-family: arial;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Ganvie currently has a population of 30,000, all living in bamboo houses, built on stilts. Moving around the village is only possible in </span><em>pirogues</em><span style="background-color: white;"> (boats carved from tree trunks), and even if someone wants to visit their next door neighbor, they have to row there. The Venice of Africa, as Ganvie is commonly referred to, has one and a half pieces of dry land. the complete patch of land is the site of the village school, while the half will be the cemetery, when the villagers import enough dry ground, from the shores.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div>
The answers are dependent on so many factors that influence each of our lives.....What I have come to believe is that much of humanity tends to believe what others around them believe. For many, we are "followers". We follow our culture, our customs and the people around us. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I once was a "follower" of the world, seeing and doing what others around me considered normal/right. My life was filled with so much conflict, confusion and unanswered questions. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Praise God, the truth was shared with me through the Word of God! Now, with years of putting off the "worlds" ways of thinking and putting on Gods ways the conflict and confusion is gone, but the genuine interest and love for "people" is still abundant. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The beauty is we are ALL one, created in the image of God. Regardless of where we are from, what language we speak, what "ways of doing" we have, we are created the same, in HIS image. As a Believer and Follower of the whole story of God, as provided in the Holy Bible, it is our commission to share HIS Story from beginning to end. Through the Gospel of Jesus Christ we are given HOPE of a new Life in Christ. It is not through "positive thoughts" and other spiritual dimensions, it is through the Virgin Birth, Life, Death Resurrection and Ascension of Christ that we have HOPE for today and for eternity :).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I smile and ask........"Do you know HIM?....Do you KNOW your Creator?......OH How He LOVES YOU, How He Loves you soooooooo!!!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth". So God created man in his own image, in the age of God he created him, male and female he created them. And God blessed them, and God said to them "Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing. And God said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food. And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has breath of life, I have given every green plant for food." And it was so. And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. </span></div>

Do you see the big picture? Do you see what God is doing in the world? Do you see Satan at work? Do you know what God has revealed to us in Revelation? Do you see the world unfolding? Do you know what is going on in Israel? Do you know how today's times line up with the unfolding of scripture and prophecy? Do you know where you are at in this unfolding and what your part may be? </div>
<div style="font-family: verdana; line-height: 14pt; margin: 10px 20px;">
These are just some of the many questions that I ask myself. I desire to KNOW! I desire to know all the answers. I desire to know that I am playing the part that God has created for me, versus falling into the trap of Satan's web of deception. </div>
<div style="font-family: verdana; line-height: 14pt; margin: 10px 20px;">
As I pour myself into scripture and constant reflection I am beginning to get a glimpse of Gods revelation unfolding every day. Being on the ship, surrounded by people from all around the world, overhearing many, many languages spoken, learning of the variety of cultural ways of doing has awaken and widen my understanding of the world. </div>
<div style="line-height: 14pt; margin: 10px 20px;">
<div style="font-family: verdana;">
What I know for sure is that God is at work on this ship. He has gathered us together from many tribes and nations with the common bond of Jesus! We are all here following in HIS steps, being the hands and feet of Jesus. LOVE is at the center! We pray and praise at the start of the shift, in the middle of shift, before procedures, before surgery, upon discharge, and at the end of the shift. A circle of prayer may consist of many languages.</div>
<div style="font-family: verdana;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: verdana;">
One of our local day crew utilizes every chance he gets to share the love of Christ with the patients as he said that "God brought all these people to the ship SO THAT they can get to know the LOVE of Christ". This is God at work. He is giving every person a chance to hear HIS word and to come to believe in HIM. </div>
<div style="font-family: verdana;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: verdana;">
I think of the Israelites as they journeyed out of Egypt, they were happy, yet fearful as they did not know what lied ahead. I am realizing that I am embarking on a new season as well. I have no idea what lies ahead, yet trust in my almighty Creator. I realized how quickly I was becoming enslaved to my old ways and was beginning to spin some of the same webs that God delivered me from in the past. I am praising God and so happy He opened the door and sent me back out for a "New Season". </div>

<br />
First, for safe travels. We had a scare on the Brussels flight with a period of horrific turbulence. Lots of screaming going on and food carts spilling over. The man next to me was standing at the time, he fell to the ground and was then raised up off the floor with the next huge wave of turbulence. Then it was over and we all had time to gain our "lives" back again. The man behind me shared that he surrendered to God at that moment :). It is funny how God shakes up our world sometimes to wake us up. We quickly realize that we are not really in control at all :)<br />
<br />
Second, I did get the bottom bunk. Believe me, it would not be a pretty site trying to navigate the skimpy ladder for a middle of the night bathroom run in the dark!<br />
<br />
Third, Awesome cabin mate. Her name is Kathy, thus, she must be nice :) She graciously gave me the bottom bunk, even after she was all settled into it herself. I liked her immediately :)<br />
<br />
Fourth, Lots of warm welcomes and big hugs from those that I served with in the Congo.<br />
<br />
Fifth, Thankful for a "Perfect Fit" for this square peg. I LOVE being here!!! All those wonderful memories came flooding back to me. I finally feel a sense of DIRECTION & PURPOSE for my life. I can use my skills, passions, and wisdom to create PEACE among the nations.<br />
<br />

I made it through the day with a foggy brain and was blessed to have Monday off to sleep, regroup and chill before working the next five days. </span></div>

As we Americans walk in fear and panic of changes in our ability to receive healthcare, here is a nation that is filled NOW with limited access to any medical services. Babies in the U.S. that are born with cleft lip, cleft palate are immediately provided surgery to correct. Small tumors that are found are immediately excised, children and adults with burns are healed through fabulous burn centers, people in kidney failure automatically receive free dialysis, emergency care is given and one is never turned away, all woman receive medical care to deliver their babies.......yet, in West Africa, this is not the case. They are left untreated, in pain, ostracized, malnourished and die. If they do not have the money upfront to receive medical care, they are turned away. </div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
This breaks my heart! I recognize that we do not have a perfect world, a perfect healthcare system or a perfect political system, BUT, we ALL have hearts and the ability to have compassion. I pray that we all look at the BIG picture and see the world as a whole on a daily basis. I believe it is appropriate to fight for our rights, share our political opinions and stand for justice, but along with that we have a job to do! We are created to be INTERDEPENDENT. We are created to NEED each other. I help you, you help me, and this goes for everyone. Some need help now and can give later and vice versa. If you are blessed with much, you should give much. Scripture suggests each give the first 10% of their earnings. Imagine a world that everyone gave the first 10% of what they earned to help those in need. </div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
The world is in an uproar and has been from the beginning. Each one of us enters into it without choice. Some are blessed with great homes, finances, and family and others are not. Others are surrounded by or affected by depression, suicide, anxiety disorders, drug abuse and addictions, physical and emotional abuse, neglect, anger, and violence and outright heartbreak and pain. </div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I pray that all people will open their eyes to the unending need of people that need help in this world. I pray that each one will pick their passion and turn their prayers, thoughts, actions, and resources to those in need. </div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
For me, I chose Mercy Ships! I love their mission! They are an incredible organization, fully funded by donations from people just like you and me. Every person that steps on that ship is transformed, medically, spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Every Surgery is Free! </div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
This mission can only happen through the generous help of donors around the world. If you are led to support this amazing mission, we can team up......I will be the feet and perform the nursing care and you can provide the prayer and/or financial support to meet this incredible healthcare need in West Africa. At this point, my current need for this trip is $3000.00. Donations can be received via the following link!<br />

<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;">
My reflections this morning as I prepare for take off :)</div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;">
Direction & Purpose for Our Lives..........</div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
There are days that I feel suffocated by the world, yet I should not be surprised, the whole Bible talks about the “world” and the “ways of man”. I hold tight to the promises that God provides to those who trust in HIM, specifically the hope of spending eternity in HIS presence. </div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="color: #1d2129; display: inline; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">
For now, I grab tight to HIS hand and navigate the “ways of man”. I witness, and was there myself at one time, many running around with no purpose, no direction, no obedience to any authority but their own and so many opinions with nothing to back them. I see sports stadiums packed across the world with people that know more about the players then the one who created them. It is such a ME, ME, ME world and most out for just their own happiness at the sake of anyone else. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I am reminded......”A wise man will hear, and will increase learning, and a man of understanding will attain wise counsel.” (Proverbs 1:5) Thus, it makes sense to me now, most are not looking to their creator for wise counsel. They may say they are, yet only formulate their own opinion on what they “think” God says versus going to HIS inspired truth for us. Lots of praying and opinion making going on and not much Bible Study and learning what God truly has to say. God warns us of this in HIS word, I am just seeing it for myself. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I am truly beginning to understand the overwhelming grief that Jesus felt as He walked and taught the people. There is so much need in this world, yet most are passed aside because most are too busy to reach out and help others. Their lives are consumed with “Self”. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
At this point in my life, I hold tight to ALL of scripture, these versus are keeping me centered presently..........</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” (Proverbs 1:7) I have to make sure that I am getting my wisdom from God, through HIS inspired Word for us, and not from others. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Purpose for my Life.......I am blessed with being born in the U.S. and have a roof over my head, food on the table, and more than enough clothes! My needs are met.......Thus, it is my role to help others meet their needs.<br />"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me." (Matthew 25:35-36) </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Created to be INTERDEPENDENT, Not Independent. We all need one another!<br />"But now, God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body, just as He desired. And if they were all one member, where would the body be? But there are many members, but one body. And the eye cannot say to the hand, 'I have no need of you' or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.'" 1 Corinthians 12:18-21</div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Entering the New Year Completely Trusting in God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit for my life!! I am desiring to shed the worlds ways and walk in obedience to him. I am walking on faith as I trust in HIS ways and desires for my life, and not what I conjure up!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am transferring ALL my Trust to God, believing that HE is the Creator of Heaven and Earth. HE came as Man, Jesus, to redeem us from our faults, teach us HIS ways, to show us HIS power, and give us HIS light to navigate these days. Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead to pay the penalty for our sins and to purchase a place in heaven for us. Through all this we see that HE is Just, Merciful, Forgiving!! HE is LOVE!! </span></div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know that Faith is NOT head knowledge, it is TRANSFORMING Heart knowledge. When you know HIM, When HE has captured your heart and transformed it, ALL you want to do is SERVE HIM and Be Obedient to HIM! There is nothing that I could do beside ask Him into my heart! He left the door open for me and I ASKED HIM in!! HE then started the TRANSFORMING process in me!!! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">PRAISING my ALMIGHTY CREATOR AND SAVIOR this morning as I am so thankful that HE has SAVED me from the bondage of this world and given me NEW LIFE in HIM!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Like the blind man in John 9:24-34...........All I know is I was blind and now I see. I do not know all of scripture, I do not know all the facts.........All I know is "I was blind and now I see".</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">xoxoxoxoxo</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Prayers that each and everyone of my family, friends and people I meet along the way will ASK HIM IN and allow HIM to change your heart for HIS purposes :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> I was so excited today to receive via email my RN orientation packet! I have longed so desperately to provide nursing care in a setting that follows the model of Jesus. My heart jumped for joy and rested with peace as I read the following on the first page :). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Since Jesus is the model for our work and ministry, the motivation behind our service can be reflected in the following scriptures: </span></span><br />
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, </i><b><i>I was sick and you looked after me, </i></b><i>I was in prison and you came to visit me." </i>Matthew 25:35-36 </span></div>
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>"The King will reply, I tell you the truth, </i><b><i>whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.</i></b><i>" </i>Matthew 25:40 </span></div>
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. </i><b><i>By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.</i></b><i>" </i>John 13:34-35 </span></div>
<span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As I read on I was humbled to be reminded that there are many "ways of doing". When you combine medical professionals from all over the world, one quickly needs to master the attribute of flexibility! The notion of "<i>this is the way I have always done i</i>t" needs to be an open ended notion. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Post op care, dressing change procedures and medication regimes vary from country to country. For example medication orders vary between outreaches, depending on what is procured. We are taught to "<i>be aware that medication comes from many nations, and may be labeled in different languages. When in doubt, look it up!</i><i>" </i>Generic and Trade names may be different than from what you are familiar. Only generic names are used. (Example: Paracetamol, Acetaminophen, Tylenol, and Panadol are all common names for the same medication.) </span></div>
<br />
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Lastly, we are taught that <i>"It is important to work with the awareness that almost everything in this environment is new for patients"</i>. <b>It may be their first time: </b></span></div>

And the eye cannot say to the hand, 'I have no need of you' or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.'" 1 Corinthians 12:18-21 </span></div>
