It's been an year

I can't believe the last post I wrote was more than an year ago. Time surely flies doesn't it.
My sister who got married, which I wrote on my last post is now pregnant and her daughter will be released to the world anytime this month! Exciting how the LORD increases our family, such a blessing and a joy to have another beautiful girl to our family:)

I didn't write a single post on 2013 probably because it was one of the hardest years of my life.
I realized though the fountain in the valley is nothing like the fountain else where. He refreshes, sustains and upholds us in all seasons, maybe that's why we keep on saying yes to Him though it's difficult.

2013 was tough for me but it was beautiful for my family, we are more unified than ever and love for each other has grown. I am so thankful to God for that!

So many things I am thankful for! So many things I should be more thankful for!

I am thankful for the people the Lord sends to Japan, amazing sons and daughters of God He sends to this place! I am overwhelmed with gratitude.
I am thankful for my health and thankful for the health of those arounds me.
I am thankful for the word of God that brings life and energy every morning. I know there is a difference in my day when I spend my time in the word or not, that thing is ALIVE.

I hope that this blog will be a place of recording the goodness and the bigness of God in my life and in the nation of Japan. Pray for grace that I can keep up with this thing!
