the time draws near

the time draws near and I will be returning to N.C.

It is amazing how quickly the time has gone by.  I will arrive in N.C. on the 4th... fly to Guatemala on the 8th!! return from there on the 15th, then leave N.C. for ID on the 24th.

For so many months now, I have looked to "Aug", and not beyond that. I have considered the future, and its possiblities. I love working with the elderly, those with forms of dementia and Alzheimers.  I've been praying to see if perhaps I should open a type of elderly day-care or a 'live in home' for the elderly. A live in home for example is a small home that can comfortably house 4-6 elderly instead of a facility to care for their needs.  The 'home' would provide nursing care for meds and daily needs. While I could do the activities and outings etc with them and over all provide them with a loving home environment.
Will you join me in this prayer seeking His will and to open doors where I just don't see any.  Thank you.

Also; it has been in my mind, that IF the Lord calls me to more missions work, that I am open to that also. My desire is to serve others, therefore, serving Him, allowing Him to work in and through my life for His good purpose. 
I've really been getting some leasons about pride... yes that ugly thing that dwells in me. I am constantly rebuking it and keeping 'silent' when my mouth wants to SPEAK...  you know what I mean?
Humility and meekness is strength under comtrol. I KNOW He lives within me, I KNOW He knows what is best, and if I am FOLLOWING Him, (not trying to lead the Lord) Then I CAN rest in Him and Trust Him in ALL things, even when I don't like the 'things' that are present in my life,,, what ever that maybe.  I do not have to PROVE that I am right. ha, ya know, sometimes I have absolutely believed with ALL that I am, that I was RIGHT and stood my ground until the very moment I was PROVED WRONG!!! UGGGHHHH! has anyone else ever had that very humbling experience? I would prefer not to have it again... LOL Let me keep silent and allow the Lord to show the truth of the matter.

'Mouse the Cat',
Mouse is the neighbors cat, but has decided to hang out with me ALL THE TIME that I am home. Which is cool with me. Mouse is now spending the night and sleeping with me. I've been giving Mouse dry dog food that was already here and for the past few days I've been thinking 'I should go buy her some 'cat food' and a littler box. But put it off due to finances. Well, this morning as I am leaving for work, I TRIP over a 5 lb bag of CAT FOOD that someone had left on my porch! PRAISE GOD. I started crying. What an AWESOME LOVING GOD we have. He cares about and provides for the smallest of things. Mous the cat was happy to have cat food and is now sleeping once again on the soft covers of my bed. :) THANK YOU LORD for ALL you do in my life, whether I see the good in it or not. AMEN. 

This morning, I'm not feeling so good, and i'm sitting here, when I hear 'mouse the cat' meow, i look and she has brought me in a butterfly and laid it on the hall rug... its still flopping so I put it outside. A few minutes later, I hear her meow again, she has brought it back in! haha, so I again put it outside, and she just brought it BACK in for the 3rd time! and laid it down on the rug, meow'd and looked at me! :) I think I'm loved....

I THANK THE LORD for His loving kindness and that this sweet little creature has chosen to spend time with me, and allowed me to love it and share this time together.

If anyone would like to send some money for the orphanage(s) in Guatemala, I am taking the surplus of sponsorship monies with me as a donation for the orphanage(s).  ORI will decide how and who is in need of it the most. But be assured ALL the money that has been donated so far has been used toward this misison tirp. (ie: airfares, fees to participate in Guatemala) and as I stated, the excess will go to Orphanages. What I gain from this missions trip, is a life changing experience. 

If you would like to donate you can send a check putting Kim Pavlich (Guatemala) in subject line of check so the monies are directed correctly.
Please mail check to:

Calvary Chapel of Asheville
P.O. Box 9159
Asheville, North Carolina 28815
Thank you to ALL of you who have kept me in your prayers and have sponsored me to go.
May our Lord repay your kindness abundantly.

In His service;
Kim
