Family of six drives 3,000 miles to Mexico. That sounds like a headline for a disaster. Actually, our first 12 hour day of driving went very well.

PICK FOR THE DAY

Recently our family visited a resort town named Ixtapa. We were delighted to get to visit with the many Americans on vacation. These Americans were interested in the details of our lives in Mexico. A common question was, "Aren't you concerned for your family's safety?" Recent news had reached them about the the gang activity in a nearby town.

My answer was "No, God had told us 20 years ago that we would be taking this trip. And, if..." and one lady finished my sentence for me, "God had brought you to Mexico, than He will protect you while you are here."

Couldn't have said it better myself!
