Excited!

Well the facility is almost ready for us to move in! We are waiting on the interior doors to be installed. The we will hang the ceiling fans/lights, finish the plumbing on the sinks/ toilets, and install a pump for the water tank. We hope to move in this coming month. This will be very different for us. We have lived in the city since we've been in Honduras. We have lived behind block walls with razor wire. We will not have this protection at the property. Building a block wall is very expensive! We will have bars on the windows. God will be our protection.
We still need to drill a well, but this will be in the future. We have a 1,000 gallon water tank that we will have filled as needed. We need the pump so we will have water pressure. We also need to finish the Children's Home room. We also need kitchen cabinets. Little by little we can finish the other things. We will save $1,000 a month by moving to the property. We won't be paying rent, extra utility bills, and gas for driving back & forth.

Children

I have been reading in Genesis...I was reading about Lot and when the men came to his door wanting his visitors. Lot was willing to give his daughters to these men...these sodomites. He was willing to throw his children to the world. I wonder how many parents are guilty of doing the same thing? Most parents do this and don't even realize it. The world is outside the doors of our homes banging on our doors wanting our children. What a serious job we have as parents! Do we take our job seriously though? Are we guarding our children? Do we have a hedge of protection prayed around them? May God help us to protect, and raise in children in God's way.
