Greetings again dear Christian friends,
It is such a blessing to know we serve the true God, He loved us enough to send us His Son and sought us out to save us from sin, the devil and even our foolish selves. We have a glorious future and it is for all eternity with our loving God.
In these dark days of separation from Blaza, David, Hannah, James, Rebekah, John John, Joanna, Sarah, Joseph and Deborah, I can only continue to pray, trust in His promises and focus on the positive things that come from trials, learn patience, endurance and keep hoping for a loving resolution to this awful crisis. Every day I spend the entire day praying about the kids I love and hope to see soon. Knowing we are all innocent, our names are clear and yet we still suffer for evil false accusations made especially against me. Officials both in government and media stay far away from the story and ignore everything as if it never happened.
In my lifetime, I have never experienced a worse situation than this. I have never had such a great loss. I have never been more confused about why it seems like God's word comes up so short on everything relating to these orphans, believing children and why evil people just keep reveling in their dastardly deeds against us. These evil thugs continue to eat drink and be merry and spew out the same old lies every time I patiently question them about the kids. This cat and mouse game of relaying information to leaders above them and at the same time denying any contact numbers or names to contact is just sickening to my stomach. Besides all the spiritual lessons I have learned ( and please God help the children to learn as well) I have also learned to have the utmost hatred for this god forsaken system and long for the days of change. Something has got to break and it won't be Christian orphan children either. Amen?! I can't tell you how much I depend on bible verse promises about orphans, children who believe and general verses that relate to the poor who are oppressed. Justice is coming, judgment is coming, wrath is coming and HE will be glorified not only through His people but more importantly through the matchless Name of Jesus!
When I was driving to get some money out of my bank to pay bills for Gold Flower and Gold Bar and also to send grandma to the Capital Children's Hospital to drop out some forms to release Phoebe's body, I decided to take the two kids to the diplomatic compound playground area. This area is guarded by soldiers and yet as a foreigner, I can do in freely. Gold Flower and Gold Bar got to meet two girls from Democratic Republic of Congo. The older girl was 9 and the younger girl was a year and a half. I introduced Gold Flower and Gold Bar to them and the kids played together.
Keep us all in prayer. As for the "legal advice" I will keep praying and seeking other doors to knock on, eventually God will lead us to a door of escape. Amen?!
Ray and the 10 and the Gold kids and Lord willing, many more in the near future.
My next update I will let all of you know the huge financial needs that are fast coming upon me.
