...to be continued

My friends, being sick this week has drained me physically, emotionally and spiritually. I had a very hard week and very few people took any care of any of my needs(there were a few exceptions). As a result I am very weary. I have been told that I will not have internet access for 4 weeks, but I have been misinformed before. Actually I have not been informed of almost anything about Tonga. I am sorry that I can not give you any more details. Truly sorry. I can not emphasize how much I will be needing prayer. This last week was extremly difficult for me and my for my friend Samantha. She has been my only friend on this outreach and in Tonga we are going to different places....I believe my leaders did this intentionally. They do not want us together because we were the two under the strongest spiritual attack and in their judgment separating us will make it less vulnerable....if it was just mosquito bites and cannibals, I would not be in such despair, but why do I always get in situations where I feel betrayed? MY friends, how I long just for a simple hug or a smile from you! Tears fall as I write. My heart longs for home, but who am I to disobey God? If I don't update my blog before next Saturday, do not plan on an update before May 9th. I love you all and thank you for being a part of my life and my adventures.

my brohter!

I am so hurting for you right now. My heart and prayers go out to you as you travel the world wanting to serve God. I know HE will use you even in situations where Satan is trying to take over. God has already won the battle. I am praying for a quick recovery and the hemoraging in you eyes to discontinue. God is our miracle worker and able to do imeassurably more than we can hope or imagine.
I know that Satan must really be afraid of you because you are being attacked on all sides. The best part is that God is fighting back. I am praying for you and want to remind you to put on that armor every day. Don't be a "spiritual streaker"... especially under so much attck. I am praying for some gigantic angels to surround you and protect you from whatever the enemy will try to throw at you. The enemy comes to steal kill and destroy... so remember to be on gaurd and I hope that you can talk to your group about what you have been feeling and a lesson of love can be learned. I am sorry you are being treated like a leper. That is awful! I don't know why this is happening on your outreach... I just want to encourage you that God is going to use you and your experience thus far to touch the lives and hearts of those around you and even across the world.
you are amazing my brother and I will continue to lift you up in prayer!
love ya!
your sis
