DON QUIXOTE SANCHO PANZA...ANOTHER AMAZING DAY

ANOTHER AMAZING AND UNUSUAL DAY... IN THE LIFE YOUR DON QUIXOTE ( me) and YOUR SANCHO PANZA (Irmgard) As you may or may not know, our normal method of going to our Meet The World Witnessing spot, BY TRAIN, has been disrupted by train strikes.. So instead of taking a fairly reasonable 1&1/2 hours we are taking 3 hours or even more with long waits for busses in between.. It is one thing to sit and relax on a nice comfortable train than to be bounced around in a cramped bus taking twice the time. Well we have to go out every single day for NOT ONLY OUR LOVE FOR THE LOST BUT purely financial reasons..to make ends meet to pay our bills we need to make 25 € each..50€ in all. TIMES 30 = 1500€ a month plus 368€ children's grant plus 270€ government help towards our rent for being low income plus 225€ from regular donations from three well wishers MAKING A TOTAL OF approx 2300€ a month.. AMAZINGLY THIS ALWAYS ADDS UP TO BALANCING OUR BOOKS..IF SUDDENLY THERE IS A BIG UNEXPECTED expenditure, then in comes some unexpected cash from an equally unexpected well wisher or other source.. ALTHOUGH I FAIL HIM REPEATEDLY, HE NEVER EVER FAILS US, IRMARD AND ME THAT IS... Actually He never fails any of us if we love HIM ...BECAUSE ..ALL THINGS even what appears to be bad, WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THEM THAT LOVE HIM, AND ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSES..ROMANS ch8:28... So here is the story.. When everything is usual there is not so many opportunities for stepping out by faith.. We were stuck in OVERATH, about halfway from Cologne to our home..Right opposite there was a really posh ITALIAN restaurant, probably the best restaurant in town..so we prayed... In we came, and very politely asked to speak to the boss.. A delightful smiling ITALIAN in his 60s a young man compared to me, asked us what we wanted..We explained that we were missionaries and stuck for some time in his city and would he be able to donate something for us to eat.. What would you like?? He smilingly asked... Anything you can spare.We replied, so he beckoned for us to sit down.. Now we would have been very happy with a take away pizza.. First came antipasti, then delicious cheese of tomato soup.. Then on one plate a huge pizza with anchovies and mushrooms, quite the most delicious I have ever tasted and then on another plate mushroom noodles.. We managed to eat half and he wrapped up the remains which our kids ate even though it did have some ham on it as they are anti meat eaters.. Wow!!!! It is true!!! HE does love us and we were able to give him a rosary of his choice and we asked padre Pio one of my favourite saints from Italy to pray for him..a movie of his life is posted on YouTube and well worth watching.. I have watched it often in ITALIAN but with subtitles of your language choice. This is how we used to live as full time missionaries for 45 years in First ENGLAND 4 years, then PORTUGAL 4 years, then BRAZIL 3 years, then INDIA 7 years, then UKRAINE 9 years, then Poland 4 years, and then Slovakia 3 years and now in Germany 6 or 7 years... at almost 76 in just a few days...hint ..hint...22/11/38 my date of birth..22/11 that fateful day when JFK was murdered IN 1963, by his govern MENT....governing our MENT our minds..Mind control...MK ultra hidden in plain view... Also another point worth mentioning....We know from the Bible that just around the corner is THAT TIME OF GREAT TRIBULATION WILL BE UPON US... ALL THE USUAL CIRCUMSTANCES WILL BE CHANGED DRAMATICALLY..NOT JUST TRAIN STRIKES BUT NO TRAINS AT ALL. NUCLEAR DESTRUCTION ALL AROUND US..but. Our God is STILL able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we could ask or think!! EPHESIANS ch 3:20 Hope you enjoyed this.. Would love to hear from you and maybe you too would like to be part of this crazy missionary effort by DON QUIXOTE (myself) and SANCHO PANZA (dear Irmgard). THE MAN OF LA MANCHA .......ONE of my favourite movies starring Peter o Toole... GBY KGFG look forward to hearing from you Sent from my iPad
