It's all about trusting. Ryan and his big sister, Emily
I was sent this picture of my grandson, Ryan. It’s his first experience on roller blades. Notice the trust he has in his big sister and notice how his big sister cares for him?
Another thing struck me about this picture. It’s the preparation they made and the protection they put on before attempting this fearful and scary new adventure. This is what God calls all of his children to do. Prepare and protect ourselves from whatever the circumstance… and then Trust in Him…and He will take our hand and guard and protect us from all evil.
Have you taken the time to meditate on His Word and put on His protection? Are you prepared? And…who are YOU putting your trust in today?
“This I know, that God is for me. In God, whose word I praise, in the Lord, whose word I praise, in God I have put my trust, I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me? Your vows are binding upon me, O God; I will render thank offerings to You, for You have delivered my soul from death, indeed my feet from stumbling, so that I may walk before God in the light of the living.” Psalm 56: 9-13

For all you dear readers…I’m sorry that my posts have been delayed! I’m just now recovering from two surgeries. One to correct my reconstruction following breast cancer and the other one to solve a problem with my leg. It’s so nice to see the world without the haze of painkillers. I can finally focus on my computer and this blog!
I wanted to write about the marvelous trip we took to Brazil! David was in India and then a few weeks after his return we were both asked to go to Brazil. David sang and spoke twice a day there for about 5 days and I was asked to speak to the women.
Let me just say that Brazil was quite a surprise for me. I was expecting it to be very backward. What I found was beauty, wonderful people and a very progressive country!
Brazil has beautiful flowers!
wine and roses
yellow butterfly on windowsill
Very strange birds!
don't know what they're called...but I've never seen them around Minnesota!
Beautiful scenery.
beautiful skies
waterfalls
rainforest
quaint buildings
Different food.
whatever this is...it's very sweet!
no idea what this is. Didn't taste it either.
lace curtains
cheery red checkered
Open windows everywhere! They must not have mosquitos.
But the best part of Brazil? The dear friends that I will treasure forever. They welcomed David and me with such love and kindness. We felt like family from the moment we landed. Thank you all for the fun…food…fellowship and friendship. Your faithfulness really ministered to me and I miss you all very much!
So…dear family in Mafra, Brazil…from David and me…
Linda and David Koblish
As they say in Portuguese…
OBRIGADA!!!!!!!
Blessings, Linda
