  • Hello to whomever is reading this post….It’s Saturday March 6th here in Chiang Mai Thailand, and  we are about 2 weeks out from our departure back home.  I never thought a year ago when I was posting about our departure TO Thailand, that I would be writing this post a year later.  It’s amazing how things change.  I can honestly say that I am OK with the direction we’re going in.  I did think we would live in Thailand forever, or atleastlonger than 1 year, BUT I’m not God, and in my ignorance I made statements that are out of my control.  I’m learning to shut my mouth more. :) 

    Anyhow, it is exciting to go back home, yet scarry in a way b/c there are so many unknowns waiting for us when we get there (and that’s only 2 weeks away!)  The reality of Proverbs 3:5 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and don’t depend on your own understanding” is staring me in the face write now.  I don’t have all the answers, in fact I have very few, BUT I know who I’m following, and that’s what counts most.

  • We had a great time at the childrens’ home in Baan Mae Toh this past Saturday.  With a donut eating contest, donkey races, “duck-duck-goose”, soccer practice, and even some badmitton; our day was full.  Madison, Grace, and Ezekiel had a wonderful time playing with the children as well.

    It was equally rewarding to talk to them about the story of Jairus and how when he faced an impossible situation, Jesus told him, “DON’T BE AFRAID!!! ONLY BELIEVE AND YOUR DAUGHTER WILL BE MADE WELL!!”  (Luke 8:50) What encouragement!  I need that right now! :)  Anyhow, check out the slideshow below for more pics.  God Bless—->Rick
