Language School

"Where He leads me I will follow;
I’ll go with Him, with Him, all the way."

     As many of you know Howard and I have been in the states since the first of the year for "Home Ministry Assignment."  We sent out a newsletter detailing the plans we were pursuing and what we were hoping to accomplish by being in California.  One of those things was the desire to attend language school to get our level of Spanish from Intermediate to Advanced.  We had a general idea of what we thought that would look like and we had "plan B" (Mary did:) in case that didn't work.  Then God spoke up and in the last two weeks His plan has emerged and it doesn't look anything like we thought or had imagined.  

     Long story, short.  In just the last two weeks, we were given the name of a school in Guadalajara, Mexico called "Harvest Language Center".  We filled out the 3 page application, the 7 page evaluation (in Spanish) and bought plane tickets for April 1 - May 18th.  The school cost half of what the school was we had originally looked into in Ensenada.  In the last 5 days the amount for the total cost has been donated, schooling, housing and plane tickets.  

     Due to all these circumstances we truly feel God's hand in our lives and the direction He is leading us.  Simply put, we are the grateful recipients of his provision and care.

After a night's rest, we realized the above picture is really how we feel about what all God has been doing in our lives.  His blessings are truly pouring over us with a majesty and intensity that has left us breathless.  The only appropriate response is to stand with our arms opened wide to receive His blessings.
