Moving Day!

So as most of you know I moved into a home with a couple of the other staff when I first got here. I had high hopes that I would be moving into one of the four homes that the girls live in. As time went on complications came up and it looked more and more unlikely. While I am getting lots of time with the girls it is usually while teaching them and running around from one house to another and then back home. I kept asking God to make a way for me to move into one of the homes so I could be more intentional about getting to know the girls. I had a desire to go into Sani's house which is the one with all of the littlest girls.

Late last night I got a knock on my door saying I needed to pack my things cause in the morning I would be moving over to Sani's. Annamma, the eldest of the staff, who I am living with got a call to say her mom is in critical condition and she needs to get home. While I am so sad about the circumstances this has all happened under, I feel like God has been so sovereign in the planning of this trip for me.

My first month here has been stretching and wonderful in every way. I have found living with the staff a perfect setting to settle in and getting to know them. Now I get to move in with the girls and spend 24-7 being with them. I am running around in a bit of a frenzy to get my things packed into the Indian style U-Haul, aka rickshaw, over to Sani's.

Please be praying for me in the days ahead. I feel so blessed to get this opportunity and really want to hear the voice of God in all that He calls me to do with my remaining two months at Ashasthan.
