Update from Bangalore.
Nathan doing well and will fully recover! Praise God!
We have stepped out in faith in the past few days to get Nathan and his Dad home.
Nathan had not been given release from hospital, but if we were to get Nathan home ASAP and to get Shaun onto the same flights, we booked flights before medical advice in allowing travel!
Insurance also won't pay without medical permission.
Shaun had booked a flight back home from Bangalore to Bangkok - but that was as far as he booked For the home journey.
I decided it would be best for Shaun, Nathan and I to fly to Delhi and join the group for our flight to Bangkok and then our flight to Melbourne.
The plane from Bangkok to Melbourne only had one seat left, so we booked that first. Then we booked the flight from Delhi to Bangkok, followed by the flight from Bangalore to Delhi ( for the 3 of us).
We need to leave In an hour and a half to travel to the airport and are still waiting for the letter from the doctor.
If you are lost in my explanation - don't worry. What it all means is that in the whole process of getting Nathan and Shaun back to Melbourne, we have worked backwards and stepped out in faith in ordering tickets to fly home and trusting that Nathan will be well enough to fly home!
That's how God works and wants us to work, trusting Him every step of the way.
I have just left Shaun and Nathan at the hospital to come back to the base to pack up my things and say good bye and thanks to everyone. I was intending to do an hour of shopping, but the traffic was too horrific so I came back to the base earlier and ended up having a special time of sharing with OM staff.
God wanted me to do that - rather than go shopping!
We had a wonderful time of sharing and prayer and I was able to give a message of God's hope and goodness to our brothers and sisters here - despite the difficulties we face.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding, always acknowledge Him and He will direct your path. Proverbs 3:5-7
Blessings to all.
Thank you for your prayers.
See you in Melbourne......and big hugs to my husband

Cara Beovich Ephesians 6:10 be strong in The Lord, and in the power of his might! Daniel 3:17&18. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, o king..... It is a great testimony to the world if they see that we are not bound by ties to fiery trials. Our joy can remain even in the midst of a furnace because our names are written in heaven! Keeping you all in prayers! Catriona we will never be able to thank you enough.ephesians 1:15-19....cease not to give thanks for you,....thank you Paul and Wendy.
