Consider it all Joy!

We're nearing 9 months....... and I am amazed that many of you are still visiting this blog and remembering us in your prayers. You are troupers! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart! I know that I get tired of praying about our situation, so you are surely tired of it too, at times. But, I selfishly ask that you continue to remember us... continue to pray for God to meet our needs and direct every step we take. He is using this trial to shape us... what a difference I can see in my faith and in my walk with Him after 9 months of total dependence on Him. When I realize that, I just have to do as the apostle James says and CONSIDER IT ALL JOY!

No responses to any resumes Mark's sent out over the last couple of weeks. Some of you have written to me and asked what he does for a living. If I had to label it I would say he is a GIS specialist and specifically a GIS trainer. GIS stands for Geographic Information Systems. Because he is very specialized it narrows his options, hence the biggest challenge in his job search.

Others have asked about my daughter-in-love. She is doing well, besides having a lot of morning sickness. They are needing to find a bigger apartment or small home to rent, assuming all continues to go well with the pregnancy. That is *their* challenge, as they are both still students and affording a bigger place while continuing college will be quite difficult. If they come to mind now and then, please pray about their housing situation.

Thank you again for all of your prayers!
Our God is GREAT and MIGHTY and ABLE!
