October has been a struggle. Me, I'm not into Halloween and I felt pretty much alone because I felt I was the only one who really hates that day. I want all of you to read this because I value all your friendships more than imagined. I pray for you and keep you all close to my heart. My values are to improve our close walk to the Lord and to improve our understanding of him. As I said, October has been a tough month of me for my faith, although I think I became stronger through it all. It reaches deep inside me when there are people who reach out to me and understand because I know you have been there at one time or another. Sometimes, when we're down and we don't quite understand at the time what is happening, that's when there are friends to help pick you up.
I can never tell when I'm going to be on Daily Strength and I have skipped some obligations. I still want to move out of Oregon to a more southern state--NOT CALIFORNIA. I'm through with the Pacific states and want to move to the midwest somewhere like to the places I mentioned in my last journal. Early this year, I went through a similar trial with a meltdown and burnout. I have a possible career ahead of me, so that's good. However, more importantly, I'm praying hard that it's more into the missionary field. You all know I still pray that the Lord will send me to witness to the Hispanics, especially in Peru and the other Andean countries, such as Ecuador and Bolivia.
I could go on and on, but the good news is that I'm feeling a little better--hence the change of mood from bad to so-so. Please keep praying for me about my future and finances. Thank you and God bless.
Love,
Richard (PenguinPeru)
