Showers


Showers! Praise the Lord for the tropical showers that have begun to come each day. It is the beginning of rainy season. Along with the showers comes cooler air for few hours. The nights had been so hot recently that it was hard to sleep. What a gift from the Lord to have the temperature drop at night.  Another challenge that those who have visited us are familiar with is the loud music of neighbors celebrating special occasions often until midnight. That also interferes with sleep. We thank the Lord for each good night of sleep.
Showers, yes, but the showers are very short, lasting only a few minutes. They are not sufficient to refill our rain water reservoir or the city water reserves. Therefore most of the day we don’t have running water in the house. We thank God that we are familiar with using water dipped from a bucket. Each year at this time water is in short supply. We are so thankful to God for providing water for each day.
Please pray for showers of God’s blessing on His work here in Koh Kong. We pray for wisdom and for more lives to be changed by the power of God.
 
“…There shall be showers of blessing.”  Ezekiel 34:26

  1. It is good to hear from you through this blog post and I am thankful to the Lord that Mary had a good visit with the family and that you are getting a better night sleep. I will pray that God will continue to send you much needed showers both in the physical and spiritual ways.
