He Cares for me!

Why do I feel discouraged sometimes! God know my every need and takes care of it in His time. Yesterday was Sunday. I was not feeling discouraged at all but God still chose to bless me in an amazingly awesome way! An individual handed me an envelope with my name on it before Sunday School opening. I didn't have a chance to open it then. After church, another individual pressed a wad of bills in my hand and told me this was their tithe! I didn't see how much that amount was either. So, about 5 hours later, I got to open up the envelope and look at the bills. The amount of money totaled $550! Is God amazing or what? I think my total support is up about $4,300, and I still have almost a year until the trip! Mi God i gutpela tru! Two different people this past week have asked me if I will stay on in PNG after Interface for a 2 week medical internship. I'm still undecided at this point. Yesterday encouraged me so much, though. God is great!
Please pray:

*That God will show me whether to stay on for Internship or go home

* That I will not doubt God's ability to provide my every need

* That, when I get discouraged, I will remember all that God has done for me

Thanks so much for taking an interest in my quest to PNG. I really appreciate it!

Conflict!!!!

You probably are wary about the title of this post. Don't worry-- it's not what it sounds like!!!! I just want everyone's opinion on our horse's name. Do you like Jesse or Strider? Mom and I and all my coworkers like Jesse but Jenny and Danny like Strider. What do you think? Please post your opinion. Thanks!

Jesse our Horse!!!!

Well, here he is! Our adorable new horse, Jesse Jay Case! Jesse is the best horse in the entire world!!! He is so loveable( although he is a bit of a pig!) Jesse is a 12 year old quarter horse gelding with a blondish mane and a beautiful tail! There he is in the top picture eating grass in his 4 acre pasture. The next picture is me and my horse. We all are part owners in him. The bottom picture is all us owners: Me, Danny, and Jenny. Katy doesn't own him but she'll still be able to ride him. I thank the Lord for sending Jesse into our lives. He is a perfect horse for us!!!! Thank You, Lord!

I love my job!

My job at Lantzs is going exceptionally well. I am on my feet for 8 hours straight but it'll be worth it when I get my first paycheck! The Lord is so amazing about sending little things into my life to encourage me. Here's something that happened today: I was getting ready for church and wanted to listen to some music. I almost turned on a favorite tape but instead turned on the radio to my favorite station. All the sudden, my absolute favorite hymn came on: "His Eye is on the Sparrow"! The ironic thing is that I had just been humming that song minutes before! I don't know why that little incident so encouraged me but it did. It put a smile on my lips all through church. Praise God from whom all blessings flow!

The New Look

So.... how do you all like my new look? Thanks to Katy, I have a beautiful blog. I appreciate her very much. I start my new job at Lantzs tomorrow. I'm so nervous! Please pray that I will be a good worker and not be too overwhelmed. Thanks alot!

The New Look

Under Construction!!!!!!!

I, Katy, am taking over abby's blog to custumize it for awhile so if things look a little weird don't worry :)
Later :)

A Plateau of Sorts

Well, now that I've gotten accepted to Interface, I've reached a plateau of sorts. It doesn't seem that anything important is happening. Funds are starting to slow down for now, I'm not really in contact with anyone from NTM and the trip is almost a year away! But the Lord is as amazing as ever. I'm not complaining because I know that the Lord is moving in awesome ways. I just want to GO!! I guess I have ants in my pants as the expression goes:)
Please Pray:

* That I will be patient and continue to trust the Lord for my needs and wants

* That I will be in prayer about my future as a missionary nurse

Thanks so much! I appreciate your prayers. God Bless!
