Mary K's ramblings

22 December 2004

I made it to Brazil with no problems. Granted, since America is fingerprinting Brazilians as they come into the country, Brazil is now reciprocating. After I passed through the entry part where they review your documents, I went to my second line for the day to have my picture taken and my finger print captured. The first line went very quickly, praise the Lord. The second line, however, was an hour long. (And it was before I could even claim my bags. They were just waiting on me.) I received the green light at customs, which is ALWAYS a praise. Thank you Jesus. My parents were waiting on me outside the doors. Yeah!!!!! They looked so great. I love them so much. They love me enough to let me go visit some friends in another town.(I will blog about that later, after I process my thoughts about it better.) I went to Garça for a couple of days and stayed with Marly and her family and got to see old friends. It was nice and heart breaking at the same time. (Refer to previous comment.) I even got mistaken for a Brazilian a couple of times. Beleza!!!!

I am so blessed to be here. I have been praying as I walk and as I have been riding the bus (which I have done a great deal of.) God is speaking and I am listening.

I pray that the Lord draws near to you as you seek Him. May God´s blessing rain down on you as you go throughout this holiday season.
