Growing.....


A picture to show how the kids have grown in the last 5 months. The right picture was taken last December. And the left picture was taken in May. 
(It's time for Olaf to leave the house, see how his large buttons are kinda drooping?And his hair is getting kinda curly, Along with his sad little fingers getting strangely, odd looking?
The Children will be sad to see him go, But it's time for us to reorganize the school room and get things cleaned up so we know what all we will be needing for the next school year.)

It is hard to believe how fast time is going. 
We have been here in Cambodia for 11 months already. 
It has been a hard 11 months, but I can say it's been good too. God has used hard times to change me for his Glory and Honor.  And it's my hearts desire to continue to grow in him. And in order to be growing in him. I need to be open and allow him to stretch me in areas,
I am not comfortable in being stretched. A challenge to each of you reading this.
 Do you see growth in your life?
 Are you allowing God to use you? 
Or are you stuck?
 Stuck on the hard things? 
Stuck in your comfortable life? 
My Prayer for you is that you see growth in your life, mature growth in Christ!

So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.
Ephesians 3:17-19
