03/26/2020 - I am Peter

-
So many times, people say I can't believe Peter and the disciples betrayed Jesus. I wouldn't be like the Israelites and backslide. Yet here today, you traded in trust for God into fear generated by the enemy. You live in fear, holding onto your own devices while denying and trusting in God. We are just like the disciples and Israelites and its time people of God we proclaim Who God is and Trust in His provision. We are being shifted right now, many are being led away and some will be kept. My God it breaks my heart to see this brokenness. Stop elevating people who claim they know more than God and walk on these troubled waters towards our Savior. Toilet paper, water, food, your house, your job, your car, Nothing is guaranteed!!!!! What is guaranteed, is that Jesus died for your sins on the cross, rose from the dead 3 days later and you can have a relationship with Him if you confess your sins and believe in Him. You can stop living in fear and live in reassurance of His love and provisions for you.

Update on my Health

-
My life is at a crossroads. The past week I have had to shift through many different emotions. Last Monday after being sick for 4 days, I went to the lab and had two vials of blood drawn to check for malaria and a CBC performed. Everything came back normal but I have the same symptoms of Malaria that I had the first two times. After speaking with my supervisors, my doctor, and another doctor, we can to the conclusion that it was possible that I had the malaria that hides out in my liver. I also found out that I could take primiquine to treat this but that is was not available here in Niger. It was very frustrating to know that a $20.00 drug could be found in the US where no malaria is located rarely but not found in a place where malaria kills people every day. Crazy, yes? Anyways I spoke and prayed to my husband and he had churches in Andalusia pray that God would show me away to go. I went Friday and had three more vials of blood taken and test performed for liver enzymes and a G6-PD

Discouragement in a different world

-
I need prayer for discouragement. I feel like I'm either extremely happy or extremely sad the past week. I'm super happy to work with children and work for the kingdom of God but when I get back to the guesthouse I feel discouraged because I feel like there is something more to do. I know I am where God wants me but I question myself about what I am suppose to be doing while I'm here. I’ve questioned so much till I have turned into a hermit and not gone out to do things I know I should do to get out of this sadness. I'm thankful for Christian friends who encourage me and have made me get out and hang out with other Christians. I know it sounds so selfish to be discouraged after all that God has done for me but I just feel like I am failing him by not doing more for him while I'm in Niger. I'm blessed to have a room mate who loves God and offers her ears and encouragement for when I get discouraged. I'm blessed to have a husband who will get onto me and tell

Debridement of the Flesh

-
Lovely title don't you think? For those of you who don't know the meaning of debridement it means "Surgical excision of dead, devitalized, or contaminated tissue and removal of foreign matter from a wound." Wounds are sometimes debrided with a wet-to-dry dressing. This means “A sterile Normal Saline saturated gauze is packed deep inside a wound and left for about 8 hours. After 8 hours the gauze is dry and the gauze is slowly pulled from the wound and debrides the wound by pulling out all of the pus and infection on the dried piece of gauze. Disgusting sometimes but necessary to promote healing. For those of you who don't know on August 3rd I got a motorcycle muffler burn and have been treating it myself. Last night I had to perform non-surgical debridement on the wound. Why? Because due to the thick burnt skin the wound was not healing properly and was delayed in being able to heal from the inside out. While it hurt extremely bad to do this myself, it was n
