Recently I was thinking about our time here in Peru and the things that have happened, some things we had anticipated and other things have taken us by surprise but in each circumstance we have had a real sense of God's presence. As I was thinking I began to think back to the fears and doubts we had before coming to Peru. To be honest our biggest fears and worries lay in bringing our precious 1 1/2 year old Sarah to a completely different country where she would be exposed to all sorts of things and we could not guarantee what would lie ahead of her. As pondered this I thought back to the different experiences that Sarah has had so far and I realised that although she may have been separated from her extended family and taken out of a culture that Alicia and I were so comfortable in Sarah has very much adjusted to life here in Peru. What a blessing from God it has been that although we are sinful and worry when God promises that He will even take care of the flowers and the trees never mind us He still keeps His promises and undertakes for our worries.I think the video footage that we have added just demonstrates how well Sarah has adjusted to life here and it also shows how perhaps she is being exposed to things that she would not have been exposed to at home, things that will ultimately make her a more confident person. God is really good. Now I wonder if we can really trust Him and leave all our worries with Him. How often do we fail Him by worying about the things that He has already taken care of.
