Today is my birthday, and many of you have wished me special happiness on it. Thank you. It’s nice to be remembered by friends, and today, a special friend remembered me with a wonderful birthday present. Actually, it arrived yesterday, but what great lead in to a special day.
WE GOT OUR VISAS!!! Yay! Yahoo!! Whoopee! and Praise the Lord!! Ready or not, here we come…or rather there we’ll go! Next Tuesday, my parents and I will fly out from Des Moines with our ultimate destination as Fortaleza. So with much joy in my heart and praise to my God, I plan to run around like madwoman-albeit a cheerful one-during this next week (only a week!), trying to get everything done that needs to be done.
There has been a small snag in our wedding plans (and marriage process) in Brazil, which I’ll blog about later; but the Lord has already made provision for it with His abundant grace. Great is His faithfulness! Won’t you rejoice and praise God with us?
“You shall fear the LORD your God; you shall serve Him,
and to Him you shall hold fast, and take oaths in His name.
He is your praise, and He is your God, who has done for you
these great and awesome things which your eyes have seen.”
Deuteronomy 10:20, 21
My birthday is August 15. Congratuations on the visas! Praise the Lord.
KF and FA,
I am so happy to hear the good news! Have been thinking about you together with both your families and friends. SO glad Mr. and Mrs. Lundberg got their visas too.
Blessings to you all!
