SCOTLAND

Aberdeen, Scotland Airport

Praise the Lord we are here in a beautiful place of Scotland! We just arrived last Friday and wow its really amazing, Scotland is a Beautiful place with lovely Scottish people, that's true and I'm not kidding. I'm very happy to meet our friends here in Scotland. The people here are generous, kind, lovely, caring, giver and I love their smile, they are excellent. Even though we are a Filipino they (Scottish) received/accept us as their brother in Christ. So I want to thanks all the brethren here in Scotland. I pray that God will continue to bless you.
One night God gave me a very clear vision (November 2005), in that vision God showed me to send me to Scotland, and I said to the Lord, "Lord let your will be done!" but in m heart I don't want to go not because I don't like Scotland, it's because I'm not good in speaking English and its very hard for me to preach in English. That's true! But one day God spoke to my heart and said to me, "My son, this is the beginning of fulfillment of every promises that I gave to you!" Yes, God is faithful and I'm here now in the Beautiful place of Scotland. Friends, maybe God gave you a vision and dreams but as the days goes by just like nothing to happen it seems like your dream is dead and now you are very discouraged and disappointed but I want to tell you that every promises of God is yes and amen and I pray that God will resurrect that dreams.
Also, pray for us (Marlou, Winston,James, August, and Mark) because there is a "STOMACH PROGRESS" here, I mean there is a lot of food here, oh my the people here loves to serve us and the food is very delicious, the brethren here prepared a lots of food and we ate a lots of food, hahaha..... I think I'm very big now...
Next week I will show you many pictures so that you will see the Beautiful place of Scotland.
I really missed my family (my wife and my 3 beautiful kids), please pray for my son Marc David (20 months old) for his healing. This week (Monday)my wife went to clinic to check up our son and the Doctor said that my son need for an operation 'coz there is a problem in his testicles but I believe that God is able to heal our son. I'm not asking for money, all I need is your prayers and that is enough for us. I know that this is the attack of the enemy to my family and to me and the enemy wants to discouraged me and my wife but God will never,never, never leave us nor forsake us! Amen and God bless you!
