Isaiah 40:27-31

from the Old Testament, Isaiah 40:27–31

O Israel, how can you say the Lord does not see your troubles? How can you say God refuses to hear your case? Have you never heard or understood? Don’t you know that the Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth? He never grows faint or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding. He gives power to those who are tired or worn out; he offers strength to the weak. Even youths will become exhausted, and young men will give up. But those who wait on the Lord will find new strength. They will fly high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.

Stay strong! We are in the home stretch and will be leaving for CHINA
soon! From Jeanie:
In order to be informed and prepared for that visit, I encourage you to read the two documents that were emailed to you. The first is a one-page summary of the (village clinic) project and the second, a seven-page detailed in-process proposal. This information will be most helpful too, when we return and begin the final phase of our Ubuntu Journey - telling our story! I hope you've already lined up a speaking engagement or two with your local church and/or United Methodist Women's groups within your District. Carol will provide more on this when we are in Hong Kong.
