Hello All!
I have officially been in America for a
little over a month! It seems strange that it has been that long.
Time seems to be flying! I have been in my home in Maryland for the
last month. It is good to be home! I missed the country side and all
the green. I would love it though if it would warm up. I am looking
forward to all that spring brings, the flowers, babies, and sunshine.
Easter this year I was able to be with
my family. It was so good! We had a great meal! Spent the afternoon
and evening playing games and eating food. We even had a Easter
basket hunt. (Mom and Dad really like making clues for us!) It was
just really good to spend time with family and people who love me.
Time here has been pretty good. There
are of course some hard things like missing food and friends. But I
really feel at peace being here. I know that this is where God wants
me.
During this time I am learning to
really rest in the peace of being in Gods will. I am learning to not
worry about what I will do in the future or how things will happen. I
am amazed to see how God provides for my day to day needs. I love
going for walks and freely talking to God. My soul finally feels like
it can fly and seek God freely. A resent lesson I learned was that
Discontentment is simply saying “God what you have given me is not
good enough.” Ouch! The cure to discontentment is simply to give
thanks! Thankfulness is a great cure for the heart.
For those of you who read my last
update, I would like to tell you just alittle more about Daw. Daw was
diagnosed with leukemia when she was just just 2 years old. She had
been fighting it for the past 4 years. But this year she finally was
able to take a medican that healed her. She is Better! No more
treatments! God is soooo good! P'Great (mom) says “Thank you to all
who prayed!” She will finally be able to live a normal life!!
As far as my future plans go, I will be
moving to Columbus Ohio on may 21st. I am hopeing to work
at the same pizza place I was before. I am thinking about taking come
college classes about hospitality management also while I am there. I
am looking forward to reconnecting with some of my older friends . I
am hoping to return to Thailand in August of 2015 God willing. I
invite you to continue walking with me as I fallow God's plan for my
life!
