The Lord Proclaims His Grace Abroad

The Lord proclaims his grace abroad!
Behold I change your hearts of stone:
Ye shall renounce each idle-god
And serve, and praise the Lord alone.

From the first breath of life divine,
Down to the last expiring hour;
The gracious work shall all be mine, 
Begun and ended in my power. 

-William Cowper

The Lord indeed proclaimed his grace abroad this past week! He moved in awesome and wonderful ways resulting in a handful of Ecuadorians receiving Christ, many hearing the gospel for the first time and being invited to Verbo, a church that is committed to preaching the gospel, and still others who are already members of the Body being encouraged and having a few physical needs met. There is so much to say and it will have to be saved for next week but thank you for your prayers!! This trip was literally life-changing and I can't wait to see the what the Lord brings about in my life as a result of it. 

Here are my photos! More to come later. . .

Expectantly going

In the morning at 7, I will board a plane and head south to Ecuador.

For the next week I will be serving the people of Ecuador with a mass of dentists. My stethoscope, oto/opthalmoscope, and BP cuff are essentially accessories to the trip but I know that the Lord can do mighty things with an accessory!

Pray for safe travels, safe arrival of all equipment, and that the Lord would use our actions and words to bring glory to himself. I ask you to pray especially for me that I would be bold, that I would love like Jesus, and that I would stay healthy!!

"To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen." 1 Timothy 1: 17
