Life out here on the Dark Side of the Moon has been out beyond busy.  Thanksgiving slipped by almost unnoticed.  Shiloh has been full to the brim with many and varied guests.  We spent an entire week feeding three meals a day to seven people.  We've been involved in a variety of counseling situations.  One couple, whose wedding day will be here in six short days, have been coming twice a week for pre-marital counseling.  Another lady came with her non-Christian husband of ten years.  We poured ourselves into their lives during the six days they were with us.  The husband is open, seeking, interested, moving ever closer to giving his heart and life to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  In addition to lingering conversations with us and other guests around the dining room table, we engaged in three counseling sessions per day.  Sometimes Papa Jim met privately with the husband while Mama Alice invested in the wife's life.  Sometimes the four of us talked together around the library table.  Daily we watched Christian DVDs that address various marriage issues.  In addition we ministered to a missionary who had had a close brush with the Boka Haram Terrorist group.  We listened with rapt attention to his stories of much good that our Amazing God is doing in the midst of great evil.

Today is no exception to the above.  We currently have a student, a pastor, two missionaries, and a short-term missionary staying at Shiloh.  Tomorrow we have a seminary professor coming in from Europe to spend two weeks with us, while teaching at a nearby seminary. 

No matter how busy, no matter how crazy life gets, day by day, and in every way, God's grace is all sufficient for our every need.
