How Magestic is Your Name!

As we drove to La Palma today, the words from Psalm 8:1 repeatedly went through my mind:

Oh Lord, our Lord, how magestic is your name in all of the earth! Who has set Your glory above the heavens.

The photos do not capture the beauty but it gives you an idea. Have you ever wondered why God created the world in colors? He could have created it just as well in black and white. I think it was for us to enjoy it more :)

We had a good clinic in La Palma. We had 9 medical patients and 11 dental patients. One little boy was very sick and his mother said he had been having fevers for 20 days. We explained that it would be better for the child not to wear his winter hat and we gave him his first dose of medicine before he left the clinic.

This little boy was out playing between classes at the school and wanted his photo taken.

We found a boy with a cleft lip today. We talked to Agostin, one of the men that helps with the clinic there. We asked him to try to contact the family of the young boy and talk about returning to the clinic for a surgical consult. This is a perfect opportunity to help this child and his family.....and who knows what other doors may be opened.

I heard from Rosario at Clinic Ezell today. She said that all of the eye surgeries were going well!
