“Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the Lord rescue you today. The Egyptians you see today, will never be seen again” Exodus 14:13

A Little Love Letter to Our Readers

Our family have recently moved. We had been living in an old 1905 Victorian House which was stunning but required constant work. The move took an exceptionally long time due to legal complications in the chain, and was made unbearable by our buyers who had frequent tantrums!  Once we finally got the call that the sale had gone through, we immediately walked out of the front door and not one of us looked back.

As we settled in our new home, my husband suddenly asked whether our buyers could “change their mind”. It was a horrible, exhausted thought as we imagined the buyers storming the estate agents the next day demanding a refund. Of course, whatever noises they made, those documents were signed, sealed and very final.

The experience reminded me of the story of the Israelites leaving Egypt. After Pharoah released them from slavery he “changes his mind” and sends everything he has to retrieve them. I can only imagine the terror they must have felt seeing the army pursuing them. But God had released them, and no matter what it looked like in the physical, no noise, no army, could take the breakthrough God had given them.

In our last newsletter, I shared about the Lord bringing beauty from ashes and we share testimonials of families walking from brokenness into healing which is facilitated through our work.

This journey though is rarely one straight road! Sometimes as people we can experience setbacks to getting to where we are heading.  These can make us want to turn back, or simply despair and question whether we have made any progress at all.

When these situations happen in our house we remind each other “it’s not real”. The “noises” cannot take from us what God has given us. Instead it is these moments that tell you breakthrough is literally just around the corner.

As always, we will be there with you on the journey, through the highs and lows, until we can celebrate breakthrough on the other side…. Love Biojemmss x
