How many times have I seen Christ's amazing Grace in my life? When I look back and think of how many times God has walked me through situations where I would have given up so easily. I can say that Jesus is definitely my provider. Being a missionary is absolutely a challenge for me. I always try to be in control of everything and having everything planed out. But now I am challenged to trust the Lord to be in control. Let Him take of the maneuver and ask Him for things. Sure enough God will give them to you because He says so himself in Matthew 7:7 "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
Last month I was challenged that way! Your teams did some fundraising for Outreach and they also asked all the staff to pray about giving money so I did. As I was listing to God for an answer I felt like He was saying: " Give $100 and don't worry I will give it back to you." So I did and obeyed. It was super hard for me to do because that all the money I had and I still had to pay part of my staff fees for that month. But I just had to trust Him. Sure enough He was faithful. Not even a week later there was check of $100 from a person that I did not expected from.
It just blows my mind how God cares for a selfish person as myself.
Not to long ago we had the most amazing spring weather among lots of snow storms. How crazy is that? So we as the last big of the staff decided to go rock climbing. Sadly I didn't conquer anything that day. I attempt to climb a 9.5 plus and after that I was to tired to to continue and finish the 7.5. It was way to hard for me and I only climbed once in my life before. But only to show how much fun I had that day I'm going to add this pics.

Right now I try out different recipes and experiment around. Like giant meatballs filled with eggs, baked spring rolls, my own creation of a black forrest cake (moistened cake with 2 layers of chocolate filling, 1 layer of whipped cream and berries, covered with chocolate cherry glaze) I am also working on my cookbook. I'm putting all my favorite recipes together and cleaning the kitchen. I absolutely love my Job...
