Jesus, bring the rain.

Bring me joy, bring me peace
Bring the chance to be free
Bring me anything that brings You glory
And I know there'll be days
When this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to praise You
Jesus, bring the rain...

Just got off the phone with my family. They're at the hospital for Popes surgery... This is when it's hard to be the farthest from home you can fly. I prayed that God would let me experience everything that missionaries go through while I'm here, but I had no idea this kind of thing would happen. It's so hard to know that if something goes wrong.. I'm not gonna be there. But it's alright, I'm going to trust God because He can hold my family in His hands.

I got to talk to Popes, it was such a blessing. He answered how he always does "howdy do?" haha. I told him I loved him and that we were praying for him.. He was like 'they've got me at the hospital, they're trying to get me up and going again...' and I told him I would hug him when I got home. He said he's holding me to it. I love him so much. Thank you Lord that I could pray for him and talk to him before surgery. Please keep him in your prayers, this is a big surgery and may lead to open heart surgery if something goes wrong. Love you all. Miss you right now more than ever.
