My camera broke yesterday. The lens is stuck and I tried to take it apart, but I can not fix it without proper tools. I didn't drop it, nobody abused it, I had taken a picture, and then out of the blue it stopped working. It has been acting up(I think there might be some sand in the camera...it has been making a funny noise every now and then), but it finally just stopped. I have taken thousands of pictures so far, and other people will have cameras...but not me. It should be fixable once i'm back in the states, but apparently there are no camera shops "in fiji" but someone said we might find someone in Suva...4-6 hours away... I will post some pictures once I can gather them.
As far as the spiritual burden goes, it is not gone, nor has it been lifted, but it has become a little more bearable. But things keep happening (Big and small) to toy with my sanity. I know that I am in God's hands, yet last night I was overwealmed with fear and anxiety. Keep praying that I am able to understand what He's trying to teach me. He has been speaking clearer than ever...yet I feel like there is more junk that needs to come out of my ears in order to truly hear clearly. Keep praying.

Joel,
I am so glad there will be more pictures when you get home. I am so sorry you are having to go through the anxiety and all those other things you are experiencing. Just hold on tight to Isaiah 41:10 saying it over and over again. I understand what you are going through and pray for you every day often.
My neighbor just bought a siamese kitten. She is so much fun to visit and play with. I will send you a picture when you get home.
I think you have about 5 weeks leftin Figi. It will be so wonderful to have you home. There will be a lot of healing then. Love and Prayers,
Grandma and Gordy
God gave you a spirit of a sound mind and He will clean out your ears so you can hear His words and not be confused or anxious with the things that Satan is throwing at you. remember to put on your armor each day. don't be a spiritual streaker. with that armor on Satan has no chance to get anything past you. I am praying for you. God I am asking that you give angels to protect Joel's ears and that these angels stomp out and crush all things that are not from the Lord before they have a chance to make Joel anxious or confused. God you say ask and you will recieve... so I am asking on behalf of my brother Joel and expecting that you will continue to move in mighty ways in Joel's life during the rest of his time in Fiji. You are an awesome God and I pray that Joel will see more of how awesome you are during the rest of his adventure. Bless Joel and keep him safe. Let it be!(AMEN)
