All of the 20 turn-arounds on our highway have been blocked so we drive 5 miles in the opposite direction to turn. The government wants to put a u-turn directly in front of Casa. We meet with them tomorrow to see how much property it will cost us. I need wisdom! Pray!

A team from New York arrived today & immediately had a program for the girls tonight.

Do you ever feel like Charlie Brown? You know what I’m talking about,‑when nothing ever goes right. In fact, everything is out of control!

Even your dog tells you what to do!

Charlie Brown goes to kick the football while Lucy is holding it for him. Charlie Brown is down on his back and says, “Why do I always fall for the same‑old trick?” Lucy answers, “because you’re a loser Charlie Brown!”

Psalm 42 says that God will lift us up when we are down. Moses, David, Jeremiah, Elijah and many other powerful men of God experienced depression. That is not the sin. The sin is in staying down when you are low.

You and I do not need to keep falling for the same trick like Charlie Crown did. Once we learn what Satan is trying to do to us we need to take the bull by the horns and kick him in his teeth. How do we do that? We praise Christ! We offer a sacrifice of praise!

God calls it a sacrifice because that is the last thing your natural mind and body want to do. We would rather wallow in self-pity.                                       Psalm 42:3-4 “My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say‑unto me, Where is thy God?   When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had‑gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice‑of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.”

Just do it!
