Miracles

I am so overwhelmed by the goodness of God and His faithfulness. Yesterday morning we got a call from the mother of the boys who took our stuff and she said she wanted to give it back. When Lisa told me I could hardly believe it. Could they really still have my computer? It had been 3 or 4 days and I figured they had sold everything by now. We got in the car and went to the meeting spot where the lady said she would be. I tried not to get my hopes up just in case she didn't show and sure enough when we got there she wasn't there. We asked around to see if anyone had seen her and no one had. "Lord what is going on?" I thought. "What do we do from here?" Just then a police car drove by us and we decide to ask for their help. We had a strong Honduran man with us, who knew knew Lisa and obviously knows the culture, and he thought it was ok to go with them. So we hopped in the police car and with the 4 police men and their rather large guns we went searching, but to no avail. After 45 minutes of driving down bumpy roads, asking around, and receiving many strange and confused looks decided to return to the car. On the way back we passed by the original meeting spot and we saw the mother. She had our things with her! Lisa got back her DVD player and CD player and a few other things and I got my computer.

 Later that night when I got to look at my computer there was not even a scratch on it and everything that I had on it was still there. It still blows my mind. The chances of getting it back were slim to none and getting it back all in tact 4 days later is nothing short of a miracle!

Thanks for all your prayers!
