Big Change of Plans


Well, many things have changed in the last few days that I must inform you of. I will not being going to Thailand right now. To be as honest as possible, my mom doesn’t have much longer to live and I need to be home. That is a hard pill to swallow but it is the realty we face right now. I cannot begin to explain how I feel. My mom currently has cancer in her brain, which is causing memory problems, her lungs, which is causing shortness of breath, her liver, which is causing many other problems I can’t really explain and her lymph nodes. All we know is that her time is short and we need to spend as much time with her as possible. I know that God wants me to go to Thailand, just not now. Despite my frustrations, my pain, my tears, or my sheer hatred for this situation, God is still faithful. His peace has been overwhelming. I beg you to pray for my family as we face the coming days. Pray for wisdom, clarity, peace and a willingness to obey the Lord, whatever it takes. Here is a verse that I have found comfort in.

“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”- Isaiah 41:10
