Counting my blessings!

Ete sen!
It's been such a wonderful week! The days leading up to my trip were very eventful, and Jehovah Jireh continued to provide in such incredible ways! His provision during the preparation for my trip was incredible. "Give thanks to Lord for He is good; His faithful love endures forever." Psalm 118:1.

I arrived in Ghana Wednesday night, and thankfully didn't have any problems at the airport and all my bags arrived safely! When I got to the orphanage, the kids were already sleeping, so I had to wait til morning to greet them. The rest of the week was very busy. Spent most of my time loving on the kids, and getting settled in to all the craziness.

The Lord has been so good to me! The trip here was good, and my body is adjusting surprisingly well to the Ghanaian food and climate. I can't even begin to count how many ways He has blessed me this week! He's so good! "But I will sing of Your strength and will joyfully proclaim Your faithful love in the morning. For You have been a stronghold for me, a refuge in my day of trouble. To You, my strength, I sing praises, because God is my stronghold, my faithful God."  Psalm 59:16-17.

Please be praying that I would be intentional during my time here, and always seek the Lord's will above my own. Also, there's a child in the home who has been causing a lot of trouble, so please pray that the Lord will   work in his heart, and draw him unto Himself.

I'm very excited to see how the Lord will work here in the next three months! Thank you so much for your prayers, and I will try to keep you updated!

"Pure and undefiled religion before our God and Father is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself unstained by the word." James 1:27.
