Disappointed/Blessed!

Hi All,

After our computer class this morning, Larry saw he had a message on his phone.    He immediately listened to the message.    It was from church travel and they said that there still was a problem with my visa.    He said, it didn't seem like it could be resolved soon so he suggested we contact our daughter in Kaysville (Angela) and see if we could come and stay with her for a month while they waited for the visa or found a new mission for us.    I knew Angela would welcome us and that her family would be so loving to us, but Larry and I were devastated.   We have learned so much and have such a desire to serve now!

Larry returned the call to the visa department but the person was gone.    We knelt and prayed again.    I prayed for the Lord's will to be done, but if it was his will, could my visa be approved.     Thirty minutes later, Larry checked our email and found a message saying:  MY VISA HAD BEEN APPROVED!   They will begin to make travel arraangement for us.

Such a HUGE tender mercy!   The Lord has blessed us so much.    We are filled with gratitude.    Our children just replied and said they fasted for us on Sunday that my visa would come!   I know he heard our prayers. 

Love, Sister Todd
