LET HEAVENS AND EARTH!


THIS IS VERY STRONGLY ON MY HEART TODAY.
SEEING THE SINFULNESS OF THE WORLDWIDENESS
AND THE DIFFICULTIES OF OUR LIVES
SPREAD AROUND AND ABOUT.
I TRUST FOR AND WORSHIP MY HEAVENLY FATHER.
AND WHEN SEEING THE CLOUDS AND THE ROCKS
AND THE MOUNTAINS AND THE LAKES
AND THE RIVERS AND THE STREAMS
THAT ALWAYS HAS ME FILLED WITH 
REJOICING FOR MY LORD.
=======================================
BTW, Dave and I were going from our place in Omaha, to other places and other states to the West, to see family and friends and heading home in a few weeks.  We took many pictures and this one iwas a special one.  Also, while traveling it was VERY hot in many of the areas, b/c it was June/July '94.  We were prepping and leaving to Uganda at late August and we thought we would never be back the the States.  Thought we'd be serving the Lord there and helping and doing whatever was needed.  Well, we were there for 8 months, came home to make enough money to go back, and spent another 8 months and then were in Omaha again.  Only in Uganda a couple other times, also.  Once for our Uganda son's wedding in Sept., '99, and then for my time to be in Soroti from mid-November to mid-February.  Dave came the last 2 weeks and held me strongly, b/c I was filled with heartbroken pieces, PTS, and malaria.  
Anyhow, Uganda is our favorite place, and the Lord put us there then,
 but He used us for some particular situations, and then 
brought us here to help and spread it around to others.
The photo is of Dave and I as we were at my birthday time in Tacoma,
 and my NW family was there for the birthday, July 9, '94.  
I was looking younger than I do now.
Blessings!

OH!  And "The Soroti Project" that is published now.

You have a heart for missions, Uganda and here in USA as well. Your photo is lovely and we are reminded that God still loves the USA and He is in control. Thanks for sharing your heart here at Tell me a Story.

That goes for all of us! Each day is a gift and for some of us a day further from the days of blossom, but still being called and lifted up.

Hey! I have a copy of that book sitting right next to me!!!
