God's word is faithful and will never let us down. Meditate on His word and he'll reveal himself to you. I have been praying about some things and today the Lord has given me an answer. I have to say it's not the answer I expected, but His ways are better than mine. As the old hymn goes, "Trust and Obey for there's no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey."

Update: Chris's uncle is doing great from his open heart surgery. We couldn't be more pleased. God is so good. Also Chris is still receiving funds toward his Thailand trip and is closing in on the goal. We feel so blessed by the outpouring of love and generosity. Praise the Lord, he alone deserves all the glory.
