Shaken But Never Forsaken!

We are so thankful to the Lord for giving us the grace to go through the ordeals mentioned in the previous posts. We were kind of baffled that such horrible incidents happened to us but we know that God is never baffled nor surprised by what His children have to go through in life. While we may never know God's exact reasons in allowing these things, collectively, when these things are put together, they are the ingredients necessary to help us become tougher in times of future trials and more tender on those going through similar trials. We thank you all our friends for your prayers for us through those very trying times. We have followed-up with the local police for leads or developments on their investigation several times but it seems like no progress or any work is being done at all. We just have to let that thing go and move on forward. We are very grateful to all the friends and brethren who have helped financially for us to be able to cover all of the monetary obligations incurred from the losses. The prayers offered on our behalf and words of encouragement have been truly meaningful and precious to us. Yes, we were shaken but we know we were never forsaken. Never forsaken by the Lord and by you all. We can never thank you enough for your kindness.
