"Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty."
Psalm 91:1
So, I am not completely fully teaching or writing any lesson plans, and am not planning a wedding or applying for jobs. . .so, as for today I am pretty free in the evening. And am enjoying it while its here. :-)
But since I do have time, I wanted to share with you friends some pictures of the little shelter God has provided. This is the place I come to after a long day from school. This is the place I believe God had for Becky and me to rest in the shadow of His wings, in His arms, and be edified to go teach, love, pray for His children in our classrooms the next day.

| Our front door and kitchen |
 |
| Our homey living room with our awesome big windows and lamps (windows have cold air that comes in, but it is not too bad). |
|
 |
| The view from our window during the day. |

| The view from our window during the night. |
 |
| Doors to our beds! |
 |
| And then we pull our beds down! |
Picture of Becky is to come! But, yes this is our little, tiny home for now. Thank you Jesus for a roof, walls, beds, heaters. Chicago ranks fifth in the nation for segregation of poor families (www.chicagohomeless.org). Some are homeless. There are organizations that are reaching out to them (my friend Evonne is doing her internship in one of these here in Chicago). So, it is a blessing to have a little home here in Chicago. It is a blessing to have an opportunity for an education. I do not deserve it. . .but God grants it. He is soooo good.
Dear Wendy, it was great to read about your experience so far! I love that your beds flip down from the wall =)
