Sometimes we Go, Sometimes we Stay

Approximately 1 year ago my husband and I had the distinct privilege of going to Jordan to do business with our Father, and to see about business on His behalf.

Approximately 1 month ago a Jordanian woman came into my life. She has cooked for me and I have cooked for her and her friends and daughter. She speaks broken English and I know only Arabic greetings. Her friend has spoken with her for 3 years (who is a palestinian believer) and helped her investigate Christianity. She and her friend came to visit today. She professed her faith in Jesus Christ.

Would you pray for "F" as she has taken a risk. She is ready to go under the water and to study. Pray for my husband and I that we would do right by her on this journey? In celebration she and her friend are bringing an entire cooked lamb stuffed with rice to our home where we have invited other believers who are from the same region.

Sometimes we stay.

By the way, it all started at Starbucks where my son recognized their language, introduced himself and passed our number onto them.

Hahahaha And people say there is no God.
