Our Nights, Your Days

It seems like we are up on and off during the nights again and I know much of it has to do with it being your days in Africa. I asked the Father to wake any of us up as was needed during your stay in Africa to pray for you and your team...and He has taken me at my word. It is usually between 2 and 3 and then again around 5. Vanessa is experiencing the same. Last night I was up around 2:15 and heard Emma crying. Her legs were hurting and she was just laying in bed sobbing (still hurts my heart that she doesn't know to come to us during the night). I got her settled in our room and Isaiah wanted me to come sleep with him. I lay there praying for you, then fell asleep. At dinner tonight Isaiah said he had a dream about you after I came in to sleep with him. He said, "Last night I dreamed Brittany was awake and praying for the homeless and the ones wifout moms and dads. They were going to have them. They were getting healed. There were some with arms cut off like my feet and the blind and God can do anyfing." Then he said God was still talking to him at school. God told him to pray that He would bless and keep your team and to think about the homeless. It will be time for them to be healed like my foot and Emma's eye, but not yet, but it will be time. Then he exclaimed, "Oh, You are a wonderful God! Mighty, mighty, mighty God and I love You!"

I love the way He speaks and moves. I know we are even more connected than we can even imagine during this time of being miles away and it gives me such deep peace. I wish I could capture all the moments of prayer and conversation with Emma and Isaiah that go on about you and what you're doing in Africa. They love you so much and even though they miss you terribly, they are mostly settled. We are working on posting pictures of the pictures they have made for you and will hopefully have them up by the end of the week. Always in our hearts and prayers.
