Marlin visited Dottie on her birthday.

My granddaughter Emma in case you could not get the update yesterday.

I cannot tell you how much joy is in my heart. Adela has decided that she will not leave. She is such a wonderful Christian and an unbelievable worker. Eleven years she has lived in our house and taken care of Michelle and Mami. God is so good.

I took a hard fall in the dark. I had a slight concussion but am feeling better. There is still a headache. The young Vencedores boys came and prayed for me. There is nothing like a child´s prayer to touch God´s heart.

Yesterday´s update did not publish.

Lee Strobel said, “God uses our valleys to mold our character.”

LORD OVER ALL is found in Romans 10:12 “For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek for the same LORD OVER ALL is rich unto all that call upon Him.” LORD OF ALL refers to Jesus supreme rule throughout the earth at His second coming. ALL means every Jew and Gentile. The plan of salvation is for ALL people. The Jews looked upon the Gentiles as pagans who were excluded from God´s favor. The Gentiles looked at the Jews and actually everyone who was not Greek as barbarians. Paul says that Jesus has wiped out all distinctions between us.  

If you did not receive yesterday´s update here it is.

I actually did not preach yesterday. Alvaro did! I had a bad fall at 4am Sunday and cut my arm deeply and hit my head causing dizziness and loss of equilibrium. I truly need your prayers. I lose my balance very easily.

The new children who have arrived since Christmas are such a blessing. And with the 4 new children arriving after being told Casa was the best home for children in Guatemala it is a positive notion that the courts see what we are doing and wanting to send more children. At least that is my hope. Pray that God continues the increase.

The church from El Pastor with Pastor Carlitos is an exceptional church. Last Friday they cooked all three meals, provided a mid morning snack, a midafternoon snack, played games and had praise, worship and preaching multiple times.

Sparks said “The mark of a life governed by the Holy Spirit is that Christ becomes greater and greater as time goes by.”

Romans 10:12 says, “For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the SAME LORD OVER ALL is rich unto all that call upon Him.” LORD OVER ALL declares that everyone in Christ is equal in relationship with Jesus. In that age the Jews looked upon the Greeks or Gentiles as pagans who were excluded from God´s favor. The Greeks looked upon all other people as uncultured and ignorant. But Paul argues here that Jesus wiped out all such distinctions between people. He is saying that whoever calls upon the Lord will be saved
