All the beauty and splendor of the lights of the Christmas season will soon be a memory, but we can keep our hearts, our lives, and the lives of others filled with the light of Christ every day.
"Next year will bring new things. Some old things might be repeated, but best of all, a new year can bring you one year farther in your progression as a human on this good earth." (Landau, Elliott D. Ph.D.,"A Time to Talk", Friend, Dec. 1971)
Our prayer is for 2018 to be as wonderful a year as possible for everyone. We realize some of our friends and loved ones are facing challenges and trials; we will continue to fervently pray in faith for them. We know this next year will be one of further enlightenment, learning, and new experiences for us as we continue the mission here in Jamaica. Most likely when we get home next summer, we will see some major changes and need to make quite a few adjustments to the new normal, but we face all of this with faith, trust, and hope.
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Until next year...all our love
As I read your Christmas post I checked to see how long you two have been serving and was amazed to find out that it is has been over 16 months! We have been blessed to read about your experiences and in a small way share in your service. Thank you for sharing and for serving!
