The Mayer Family

This morning after looking at several more immobalarias (rental agencies) and finding nothing more available, Kevin and I felt almost the lowest we have felt yet. We feel overwhelmed by the fact that we have been here almost two weeks and we still don’t have an apartment. We feel discouraged by the fact that our money is disappearing seemingly faster and faster as we stay in this Pension.

When I came back to our room and spent some time alone with God, with only a few interruptions from Evan & Ellie, God brought peace. I read the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection, and suddenly our struggles didn’t seem so big. Our lives are not in danger; we just don’t have a place to live. I felt God asking me to just believe and trust in him.

Yesterday morning while Kevin was looking for apartments, I took Evan & Ellie to the “birdie place” as Evan calls it. They had fun chasing the birds and petting an occasional dog that would walk through the area.
