Albuquerque, New Mexico

While in Albuquerque, we were blessed to stay with Komaka and Pat, a couple who are long term friends with Jim and Melissa Nesbit (for those of you who know them from Harding). Jim and Melissa told us we should stay with them when we visited Albuquerque and they were right! Komaka and Pat displayed the aroma of Christ to us from the moment we arrived until we left. Most of our time there was spent relaxing and getting refreshed (traveling can really wear you out!). They worked during the day, so we had their home to ourselves which was really nice. In the evenings we had wonderful conversations over dinner, all about Jesus and what it means to follow Christ. Komaka and Pat taught us a lot about the cost of following Jesus- denying yourself, taking up your cross daily, and following Him. They love the Lord so much! Our time there was definately needed. On our way out of town, they distributed the love of Jesus even more by filling up our gas tank and giving us $100.00 for the road! This is not to brag on them at all, as I know they do not want the glory, but I share this so that praise can be given to God for His provision through His people! He confirmed in us so much that He will take care of us wherever we go. Let that be an encouragement to those of you reading this- God will ALWAYS provide, sometimes in the most mysterious ways!
