God is right where Hee said he would be today

Do you ever get the feeling that you are in the wrong place at the right time, or that you are in the right place at the wrong time? This has been one of those weeks.... BUZY. Malaria is all around... babies in the near village have died.... Baby Johann is in the Sai Yok hospital... Chertha pwe has been in ICU at Kanchanaburi... and we had 10 visitors for th weekend! I just want to sleep, but someone is in my bed????

I want to sleep so badly, I drift off in worship, in fact everytime my eyes close, so does my brain! It all started with Heidi flying out, and me picking up Rene and Holly (who have generously come to help out for their holidays). We went to visit Cherthapwee, to find he had been put into ICU, having had emergency surgery. He was doing badly with extremely high blood pressure. So Na stayed with him. Then Somsri and I took Malee's parents over to witness her capping at Mission Hospital. We turned around to come home that night, arriving in Bong Ti at 2am.. I needed a tiolet stop before collapsing onto my floor (Somebody was in my bed already). It was then I heard the plaintive call of Johann from the girls dorm.

He had a raging fever and was vomiting everywhere. He had blotchy skin, and swollen eyes. During the day he had had a fever so he was taken to have a malaria chck.... No malaria. Then they went to the local clinic, to be given penicillin V for scabies??!! he had a reaction to the medication so he started vomiting. I just blinked my eyes, and Somsri and I headed back to Sai Yok hospital. He is still there.

Between hospital trips, I have been redesigning Arthu's old room, to have an office, as well as a bedroom big enough to house the babies, Somsri and I. My house has gone to a worthy cause.... A young lady, Leah, and her two babies have com to live with us. Her pastor husband was drown recently. She has no supporting family, so she is happily settled in my old house, helping with Thai teaching and learning English.

It is rainy season, so we have many malarial cases, leaking rooves and wet washing... X 74! Visitors have bn coming to help every week, and the kids just love hosting them. Please let us know when you are due to arrive!

God is everywhere as promised.... when I drive home exhausted, He is at the steering wheel.... I do not remember some of the trip. When Cherthapwee is so ill, He was there with him, because we weren't!! When Ruangrong ran away the other night, he was badly beaten by his uncle... God was with him, bcause he is still alive.... I wasn't at home at the time. Trust God, He is always at the right place at the right time.... Just there when you need Him.
