Life was going smoothly until this week…

This was posted on by .

Often the last thirty days before a trip are very difficult but when challenge after challenge hit, the reality has settled in that the usual pre-trip barrage has begun, as Satan tries to hinder and thwart our family. We would covet your prayers over the next week: that we would keep our eyes on Jesus, gladly welcome the challenges, and experience God’s peace. Anna remarked to me today that this must mean it’ll be a great trip (because of all that is happening). Even Titus2 went down solid tonight, and Joseph and Dad had to make a trip into Kansas City to swap out a power supply in the server :-).

We are excited about the trip, and we will continue to press on amidst the down-pour :-).

“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not” (Galatians 6:9).

Only for Jesus,
Sarah for the rest

  1. YES , I WAS QUIT WORRY WHEN I COULD NOT GET ON YOUR WEBSITE , BUT I STARTED PRAYING AND WILL CONT PRAYING LORD WILL BLESS YOUR TRIP AND KEEP YOU ALL SAFE JUST REMEMBER LORD POWER MUCH STRONGER THEN DEVIL YOU SHALL OVER COME ,

  2. I will be praying that your trip is wonderful and a blessing to all involved! Sarah…my daughter is now at home sick…kind of…but since I just received your book series, I decided to let her have the first book early instead of waiting for her birthday!! She is LOVING it!! Thanks!

  4. Amen to Anna’s comment~ That has been so true with our family. You are in our prayers daily. Each morning and evening, when we take prayer requests at family devotions, someone mentions you all or Mr. Nathan and Mrs. Melanie and their baby.
    We are getting ready to read “Spring” again…we read outloud a chapter from a book each morning after breakfast and it has become a tradition to start each new season of the year with the appropriate Moody Family Book. Some of the children think that there should be more books…January with the Moodys, February with the Moodys, ect… 🙂 That way they would get to read more of them 🙂
    Praise the Lord His grace is sufficient for all that comes across our path; He knows and understands all; and the times of difficulties and trying of our patience serve to make us more like our loving Lord as through it all, we draw closer to Him.
    love and prayers,
    Daniel and Jaynee
    Timothy, Elijah, Rebekah, Benjamin, Abigail, Isaiah, Josiah, Noah, Susannah, Nehemiah, and Baby (due 4/15/08) 🙂

  5. Amen to that. Philippians 4: 4-7. Praying for God’s protection and declaring great harvest in your trip.

  6. Dear Maxwell Family,

    We are lifting you to our Heavenly Father and asking Him to prepare your way. Let the sweet joy of the Lord be your strength and may His peace fill your heart as you walk in the light of His word.

    Much love in Christ,

    “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the Lord upholds him with His hand.” Psalm 37: 23-24
