Psalm 121

I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; from where shall my help come? My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is your shade on your right hand. The sun will not smite you by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD will protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul. The LORD will guard your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forever.

Midwest Trip

It has really been exciting to see the way the Lord has been working things out for this trip, in ways that only He can!

Jesus reminds us in His Word to " ask, seek, and knock..." and so we have been doing just that and He has been opening the doors! Once the door opened for us to speak to a Christian school in Iowa, we asked for more opportunities in Iowa and He answered! We asked for provision for the trip and He has provided in a much better way than what we had originally thought or imagined.!

Please pray for this trip. Pray that God will be glorified, first and foremost. Pray that Triston will be able to make the "real need" clear to those with whom he speaks, Japan needs the gospel! American Christians must know about the serious spiritual need in Japan and the opportunity that God is giving the Church to reach Japan with the gospel. 127 million people with less than .5 percent Christian. The harvest field is plentiful in Japan and the workers are so, so, few. Jesus said "pray to the Lord of the harvest that workers may be sent... "

Pray also for safety on the roads for this round trip of over 2600 miles in Kim's dad's Honda Civic through some areas that have recently experienced flooding.

Thank you so much for your prayers!
