more and more i am being convinced, though going through so many miracles and showers of His grace already, i am convinced that He loves us.. and not just us who know our forgiveness.. but those who really are lost.
what is the point to love others except to share the love, acceptance, forgiveness and mercy that we too have received with those whom we may call unworthy, or undeserving.
thank You Father that even though You know me, You still love me.
over the last weeks... well, possibly the last matter of days, much has happened and i expect much yet to come.
through working at starbucks, i have been privileged in meeting many new people and spending time with some of them.. whether it be climbing frozen waterfalls with them, or speaking about the differences of muslim beliefs and believing in Jesus... God has for sure been giving me opportunities for growth as well as relationship building.. including my relationship with Him.. and Kathy and my relationship.
for the time being apart, we have truly been blessed with time to skype, write emails or letters.. and when we have spoken, God has continued to grow our love as well as trust and understanding of each other. if He can do that while we are so far apart, how much more can we expect when we are again together (und nie mehr trennen müßen.)
sunday, she will travel back to wiler, switzerland, to continue with the Bible school. it is soooo good that she is doing it. we are still trusting Him for the finances. i know He will provide!
through His grace, the love of dear friends, and trust, i will be, Lord willing, flying to switzerland over easter to spend three weeks with my fiancée. it is really a miracle how it came to be and i am still staring as one who was just revealed the treasure of site. thank You Jesus, and thank you my dear friends for acting on His Spirit that dwells and lives through you.
Lord willing also, in two weeks, i may be traveling up to wisconsin to spend time with a dear brother whom i spend time together with traveling around in india. He has a dear heart for those in northern india and offered to get me up there that we can talk face to face about some things... i.e. missions, business, and conquering the world (nice way of putting it luke!!)
shortly after, i am hoping that a dear friend, brother and the best roomie one could never expect, may be coming to visit for a short time before flying to england to be with his honey honey. during the time that he is there.. it may be possible to drive down to my loved friends and family in scottsbluff, neb.
all of this is Lord Willing, and i continue to pray that His will be completely done in these plans, but i truly look with joy at how He will lead us and cross paths again.
my computer, thank God, is working with no problems. after that incident i was wondering if it would hold out, but since then, there has been nothing of the slightest as a defect or problem. i believe it was your prayers! thank you! (it may sound funny that i would ask for prayer that my computer doesnt break.. but it has been a major tool in prayer, relationship building and keeping in contact with many throughout the world since i have been back. so thank you again.)
Prayer points:
-Kathy and i as we are still apart and cannot skype so often. please pray that we are clothed in the entire armor of God eph. 5.10-18. wir schaffen das!
-for financial support for the Bible School.
-continual health.
-our families.
-our family.
also that i can soon meet with those i have not had much time with since i have been here. and His will be done in each plan that we have made for the near future.
i am thankful for the blessing that God will reward each of you for the pray and help regarding us or every other He has placed on your hearts.
thank you all who have been able to take action on their faith and help those in need.
as i have been encouraged to do so..
love in mercy.
we have all been shown mercy when we did not deserve it.. even now.
it is our joy to share that love.
viel Liebe, israel
