Thankful for being able to communicate little by little

Lisbet

      Today rocky and I had the privilege to take Silvia and five of her children shopping for new clothes. thanks to the beautiful people of GABC Arkansas.
 

      First let me say what a fun time I had just shopping and hanging with those awesome little children.

      Silvia's husband was killed last spring and she has 6 children to take care of out in the jungle. The group that was just here from Arkansas left money with us to use for Silvia and the children. What a blessing for Rocky and I to get to spend this time with this precious family.
      Silvia became a believer about 2 months after the death of her husband. I am so thankful for training in Lima about grief and also for enough language skills to be able to talk with Silvia and encourage her that all of the up and down times is just part of the normal grieving process. She was able to share and I could understand that there are times when she feels depressed and very sad.
 Thank you Lord for caring about all the little things as well as the big things. I love you Jesus!!!!
