Askante Jehovah!
Asante Jehovah! Thank you God! The weekend was relatively quiet at Tenwek and we were all grateful for the rest. Today was a busy day in the OR for ENT. Jesus and I reconstructed a nasal tip injury. This young man was assaulted minding his own business he says. I guess it is not uncommon to have your nose bitten off by assailants. We cleaned up his wounds 1 week ago and fortunately he has remained infection free. Today was his big day in the OR. Praise God all went well. the second stage of the surgery will be in 1 month to take down the flap and inset the final aspects of the reconstruction.
God was faithful to guide us in this complicated reconstruction and we are so grateful this patient will not have to live with the stigmata of a nasal bite. This morning's devotion was on abiding in HIM. We are to keep step with the Spirit moving forward in His gentle pace. This surgery was done 2 days early. I wonder what the Spirit has waiting for us the rest of the week. Everyday is a surprise at Tenwek!
Jimmy, Hunter, Aaron, Isaiah returned to Kitoben Children's Center today. Donations for the cow have been given and they have purchased a new milking cow (pictures to be posted tomorrow). Alice had been crying out to God one day at work as to why her prayer had not been answered about the milking cow. Jimmy arrived in her office at just that time and she says "she knew her prayer was about to be answered!" they were overjoyed! What a blessing to participate in giving to this honorable orphanage. There needs are so great but there joy is unending. I was able to visit the orphanage on Sunday for the first time. This was an awesome experience. Initially I felt out of place and did not know where I fit in. But it wasn't long before the sick were before me and I had the honor of praying for them. I know the spirit was working especially for Meicy. A 17 year old girl abused and rejected. Her body is weak and she has a psoriatic rash. Please join me in prayer that the Lord would heal her and set her free.
Blessings,
Chase
