Mr. Schrader sees all and knows all.
Better yet, Mr. Schrader cares about all.
God bless Mr. Schrader.

Wow, God sure took me for a roller coaster ride today, I shouldn’t be allowed out of my room when I’m like this. I guess its good practice to have to interact with people when my thoughts are raging and my emotions are strange and I have a hard time paying attention to everyone around me. I like to just go somewhere by myself sit still and think hard until things begin to settle down.
I’m glad for everything though, I have been in a spiritual lull this week and I asked God to help me move on. Normally I prefer some sort of outside trial, I’m not so good at handling the inside ones, but either way I grow, so I’ll be happy.
One other sad note – We are finally down to just the two of us 🙁 We tried to avoid it for as long as possible but tonight it has become final. We had a great time with Gavrielle, I’m so grateful for the time God granted to us. She feels sort of like a sister now and I’m glad she’ll be here for a month. May God bless her with time and discipline as she does the cooking course and Biology. We love you Gav!

Well God certainly works in ways we don’t even think to ask – our threefold cord has been re-twined. Before we even had the chance to miss our sister, God saw fit to give us another one! Through circumstances that I couldn’t have even anticipated, we were blessed with the chance to open up the recently vacated space, in hospitality to Gavrielle Houser, what fun!
When she finally got a room, we begged her to stay with us and much to our delight, she agreed! We had a great evening eating popcorn and talking (so much for all that study we we’re supposed to do 🙂 I’m looking forward to the rest of this week and pray that God will mightily use this time together.

WE’RE BACK! What a wonderful week! Arriving at the Wolf household we found them to be a family of gentle giants, tenderly mindful of the three Lilliputians entrusted to their care. Ironically, the house itself resembled a den in it’s small coziness, living in close quarters for a week enabled us to really become a part of the pack and develop close friendships with the members.
Our time couldn’t have been better, so many sights to see and such good food! But I think the best part was being in a household and part of a family. Dad, Mom, little brothers and sisters, even grandparents; what a blessing! God did some neat work while we were there, but how can I be surprised, He never leaves us and works all things to His glory.
That’s it for now because it’s late and we have to be up early tomorrow to see my sister off – she’s leaving for Indy. It just hit me this evening that even though we just got back, she’s not staying. Our threefold cord is being broken 🙁
