@bethany gotta love a bit of JC Ryle
@Cherishingsparrows2020 God never seems to lead us to doing things by half measures!!
I'm glad, actually, as it forces us to make lots of changes. Change can be very good!!
It's been really hard to simply stop getting up at 10am, and going to bed past midnight, so we can all be a family as much as possible around Jo's working rhythm.
But God is good!!
Today we all were up by 0730. Even me - since I went on a range of medication after my heart issue, it's been really hard waking up and starting the day.
I didn't exactly jump out of bed, but there also wasn't my usual heavy grogginess I've struggled with this morning - Praise God!!

Haven't seen pre 8am for a good while now...time for something new to begin! Jo's off to her new job, while me and the boys finish a few bits in the house. Home ed restarts for us through the week too.
All change as we all move from a late shift to an earlier one!

Oh, how great is Your goodness, which You have laid up for those who fear You, which You have prepared for those who trust in You in the presence of the sons of men!

This week, the Afghani Islamic leadership sent out elite troops known as Haqqani on a 'search and destroy' mission to kill any Christian leaders they could find.
Believers remain in hiding, and desperately need our prayers.

Our hot water making machine is keeping us warm. Night time there was electricity with proper voltage to recharge our phones. Parked our vehicle inside a walled campus and visiting places in Motorcycles. Comparitively good village roads.
Heard encouraging stories, how previous teams blessed these tiny churches through various training they imparted.
One young lady had a dream , in which she saw herself acquiring a new skill through the visiting team. Now she uses that income generation skill to support her family and local house church.
Thanks for praying.
@davereimer @KarlGessler It was fun to do, and I found it quite therapeutic too!
If you were wanting to hear the podcast I was invited to speak on, you can check it out via this link - with @KarlGessler and his podcast, The Faith of the Father's.
We talk about being a dad, struggles in my childhood and God's goodness through it all.

@KarlGessler awesome - looking forward to hearing this
@Olamide 😮 that's deep
@tanjaostman good stuff - i remember that my lung infection came, after i started to feel a little better. just watch for that
as i said to you at the time, the recovery was very bumpy. what i mean is we didn't simply just get better, but a bit better, then a bit worse, then a bit better and so on
praying for you all!

Thank you all for your prayers, and some of you have sent private messages asking how we are doing! I appreciate this DD community! ❤️ Even if we tested positive yesterday, I've had symptoms for 8 days. It hasn't gotten worse, so I see it as a good sign it won't get worse later. I've got the same mild symptoms as when I have the common cold. Not even ache in my muscles or throat. Just coughing when I'm laying down.
My son has lower fever now, so it's going in the right direction.
My husband, who lives a very healthy lifestyle with lots of running and skiing, has been more tired than usual and has the same sensations in his throat - but he's been working all the time (he works from home). I tried to encourage him today to work less, and focus on getting rid of this first. We are having vit C, vit D, zink, echinacea, herbal teas, raw honey, lemon water, chaga and maitake mushrooms (in capsules), breathing essential oils from a diffusor. Tomorrow we will get colloidal silver.
