This is off the blog of Winkie , God is so good all the time !
Even if He will not heal for His own reason He is still so good and when He shows only He can make things happen it makes me tremble in excitement to the witness of His Glory !
05/17/07 Winkie is back home
”We’re home at last!!! “
“ Finally, we’ve made it back home (South Auckland, New Zealand). The trip went okay- several times I saw Dad walking past me on the plane, so I know he was exercising a bit. At the airport friends Keith Wagener and Trevor and Jan Yaxley, and relatives Tony and Lovonny Gray were there to meet and greet us. We have a wheelchair from the days when my father’s father needed one, which is collapsible, which means we will be able to take Winkie out more easily. It’s good to be here. I know that it is only a temporary stay for me, and don’t know exactly what will be happening in the coming days, but am pretty sure that I have my work cut out for me- Mom too. Right now, we’re trying to arrange for connecting him with the right doctor, and making sure things like getting his wound dressed every 1-2 days are taken care of. According to Dr. Lim, he should be able to get his stitches removed by June 5.
The Korean hospital bill fully and finally paid off (praise God!) and be eating food with which we are more accustomed.

I’m mostly glad for Dad. He’s home! Hallalujah!
I can’t thank everyone enough who’s sent money in. God really is in control, and it’s evident through the contributions, through the people who have helped us along the way, and through the abundant blessings that keep being poured out on us. Honestly, besides the times when I was doing ministry with my father, I haven’t known such abudant blessings as now. The people who come are just the right people at the right times. And they seem to bring just what we need when we need it. It’s like this divine guidance/provision thing- kind of like Elija by the brook Cherish, being fed with bread and meat by the birds each day. God is definitely taking care of his servant, and I’m lucky enough to reap the benefits of being included in that care (not that He doesn’t take care of me- but normally I don’t get such constant, special care). Bless you all for your prayers and abundant generosity. May God reward you in full for the way you’ve helped us.

God bless each who reads this and each who prayed or gave to help Winkie (a good friend to Keith Green and Last Days Ministry).
Thank you each brother or sister !

What great news that he is doing well! Thank you Barry for your last comment on my site. Your prayer was really encouraging to me. Things are getting better. I’m tired of my unbelief… But it’s just so hard for me at time to believe..not that their is a God..or that Jesus is real, but that I am accepted. How can that be? I’ve changed, yes a little…but there is still so much stuff, so many things that are wrong. I don’t want to be one of those people who thought they were saved but wern’t you know. How horrible.
Thanks for all your help though..
Have a great weekend!
