DOES IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS??

Yesterday, we loaded up the van with hundreds of two pound bags of flour that Rick Caywood brought from New Mexico. We also took a few hundred pounds of beans and rice as well as a single mattress for Flor and Jorges kids. The girls baked a few hundred hot dogs to take over as well. After we repaired the base the mattress sits on, we installed the new mattress and tossed the old nasty one out. Dave, Loni and Paula started hanging curtains, and making the two new double beds we bought with new sheets, pillow cases and blankets. After all was done, David and Luz mar came and we started singing several songs before we prayed over the new addition to their house. A place where Lupita can sleep on her own bed while she recovers from a stroke she suffered from several months ago. She can barely talk, but she can sure praise the Lord. Her daughters have told her she was crazy when she would say that she sees Jesus. Know they know better! She has seen Jesus! And He came in the form of Dave and Loni Siirtola from Hancock, MI, John Van Loo from Zeeland MI, Carmelo and Caleb Avanil from Reynosa, MX, and Bruce and Paula Hepburn, that's us. We shared how Jesus does indeed show Himself to those that believe, How Jesus shows up at just the right time to meet a need or touch a sick body. He even just shows up in the form of ordinary people crossing an International Border just to help a family in need. HE JUST SHOWS UP! As Dave and Loni shared with them how it wasn't Gods plan to build a whole house this trip, but with no one else besides them coming down for a week, funds would be limited at best to build anything, THEN GOD SHOWED UP, when one of Lupitas granddaughters came up to Paula a few weeks ago and asked if we could somehow build a room for Grandma. Paula shared that with Loni over the phone and because they had built the original house several years ago with a college kid team, they were already connected to this family and were on board for the addition. I was able to share with everyone , how God seemed to be moving in a big way in their family, as several of them had accepted Christ over the last few months. Before long, Paula was giving the invitation to accept Christ and Flors sister and her husband prayed out loud to the King of Kings and invited Him to come and rescue them. We dried our eyes and did what all Christians do, we ate!! We probably ate 1/2 the hot dogs right there, and then drove through the colonia and gave the rest out to any one that wanted one, or even two. We stayed home today and took care of many different things, one of which was I needed to take a dept of transportation physical to keep my class A drivers license, in case I have to take one of Rick Caywoods trucks on a road trip to pick up some donated beans or rice, anyhow I passed, but the doc told me I have beginning stages of Diabetes and I have to change a few things, like not eating a whole box of sugar frosted flakes in one sitting, and no more 5 spoons of sugar in my coffee, OUCH!! We're getting older and need to start taking better care of ourselves, or not.
