My back surgeon called from Guatemala to ask about my back. It is fine.

Thom and Shawna brought us through their new home. It is huge and beautiful.

Yesterday on the flight from Guatemala to Dallas one of our suitcases burst. We are not certain what all we lost.

Aroldo emailed to say Alex has very little pain and smiles all the time. The kidney is functioning well.

The two interns from Louisiana arrived.

God is in the rehabilitation business. That means we rely on the power of Christ in order to make changes in our lives. All of us have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. We all need rehabilitation.

We are all addicted to SELF. So we need to be rescued from the old nature and ourselves. We all need to enter into God’s rehabilitation plan if we are to be delivered. Philippians 1:6 “He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.

This means it is not a quick fix. Until Jesus comes or until death comes upon you, you will be in God’s rehabilitation program. Perfection will not be achieved in this natural lifetime. But improvement will if you LET Christ work in you.

From evil and the power of sin.

The love of God can change a life

And make it new and cleansed within.

A change in behavior begins with a change of heart
