“For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for prosperity and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” J2911
This end and beginning of the year have really been crazy!
Last year we went through several valleys of death and many mountains and really, as a family, we had asked the Lord for a radical change, you know, a complete turnaround looking the other way. We had prayed for many years with the desire to go live in the country, the city where we were, although beautiful, was filled with drug trafficking and debauchery, and it was not the environment we wanted for our daughters.
The goal was a place in the countryside, where few people lived, where Christian values and the ability to farm, eat healthily, and exercise, far from the hateful bustle of cars, were still preserved.
Four years later My Beloved decided to answer this prayer and He gave us a totally new house near Panama, in a beautiful place called Agua Buena. A completely radical change, 8 hours away from where I had grown up.
The house is beautiful, on a hill, so it is impressive in sight. In addition, we stayed close to our family, which was another desire of our hearts.
And not only that! Rather, the Lord orchestrated everything to be able to bring us our things at a price almost a third less than what they were asking.
The move was done super fast and we were able to bring our cats, dogs, and chickens. Another wonderful miracle!!! and they all arrived alive, you can imagine the length of that journey for animals.
Another even more incredible blessing was that one day before we left, we were able to rent our townhouse to a wonderful neighbor who loved our house and was eager for a new home.
Although we cried our hearts out when we left all our friends, acquaintances, and family, The Lord opened the way for this adventure.
A fresh start for us as a family and a chance to testify about His power.
Now I enjoy working at home even more, because I have huge and wonderful windows, from where I can see my daughters enjoy their new garden to play safely, while I do my work tasks.
MAY ALL THE HONOR AND GLORY BE ONLY FOR HIM!

Dear Isabella
I love God, I just needed to read your testimony because I have too been praying for a house, because I am asking God to look after my parents and they are still working at an old age and last week their boss said they must finish and we as family don’t know what they are going to do and just this morning I prayed that God please help me buy a house and give me the preveliage to look after my parents and that they will relax and now I read your beautiful testimony and I trust God will also do it for me and I will soon come with a testimony.
And the fact that you said that God orchestrated it, wow I can relax God will do it.
Yes my dear, with Him there is no Red Sea!! He will open a way, just trust, and pray!!
Oh, thank you for sharing this with everyone so I can know more about all that he’s done for you and your family and your four beautiful daughters!! It sounds absolutely dreamy …
“Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, ever imagine, dare to ask or even DREAM of—infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes.” E320
So glad your chickens 🐓 made it there too 🤗

I couldn’t help but think of our farm, and how much my daughters absolutely loved our chickens!! Besides, chickens who are free to roam have the most delicious 😋 eggs 🍳 on the planet 🌎
I’m back, but now I am on my computer rather than my phone because, my dear Isabella, while having my breakfast, my Husband began talking to me about YOU!
Did you happen to read Liora’s praise this morning?
https://encouragingwomen.org/i-wasnt-alone/ and my comment? Well, go there first to prepare yourself, my Darling…
What YOU have gone through and Who orchestrated this huge MOVE in your life has MORE than prepared you, Isabella, to be the HGM “HomeGrown Ministry” minister. https://homegrownministries.com/ Who could possibly be more prepared or have a passion to Minister/Shepherd “ if you love Me, feed my sheep” because not just anyone will do for our mothers or our children.
Feeding His mothers, someday-soon-mothers, and their children is extremely important.
Your LMF agreement for HomeGrown Ministry is waiting for you.
Take your Husband’s arm and stroll along that beautiful lush hill and ask Him if He’s calling you to be the HGM Minister/Shepherd “if you love Me, feed my sheep” because, as I said, not just anyone will do—NOT for HGM or L@L or H@L.
If He does whisper, “It’s yours, my Love ❤️” this being the “appointed time” ”for such a time is this,” then you’ll notice, believing He’s probably already spoken to you, but you felt unqualified because you’re so young, your name is already on the door (so to speak)…

Isabella Congrats for the new home!!!!. What a blessing to be in. such a beautiful country side for your daughters to grow up. He is faithful and replies to our prayers in amazing ways. Renting your house before leaving and being able to move your pets and farm animals is just another way of seeing who He loves you and takes cares of everything. I am so so happy for you and your family. ❤️
Dear Isabella, I love reading your praise reports! Your joy and your smile are contagious!
What a blessing our Beloved gave to your beautiful family!!
I’m so happy for you!! Thank you for sharing!
Oh sweet Isabella, congratulations on your new home!!! 🥳🎉Your report greatly encouraged me this morning. I’ve been praying to God for some of my daughter’s and my heart’s desires, to put flooring in the kitchen of our house, which is still hard flooring, in addition to the desire to make a leisure area where my daughter can then have the puppy she wants so much , and reading your beautiful testimony I continue to trust that God will also do this for us, in His opportune time.🥰
Thanks for sharing your report.🙏
Thank you all for you beautiful comments!!! With Him everything is possible!! 💗
I loved your praise report Isabella! I was watching a show yesterday with all those beautiful countries! He always makes a way when we wait on Him and He most certainly exceeds our expectations!
I am also asking Him for a move or a change and to show me where He wants me to go, either back to my dad’s house because He lives alone now that my brother has moved out or a small place of my own. I’m waiting for Him to show me though, and in the wait I’m going to just be content where I am at and follow His lead!
P.S. I’m glad Miguel 🐓 and all his little chicken family, the dogs 🐕 and all the animals made it with you ❤️
Yes my dear Liora, Miguel is loving his new place!! Thank you so much!!
Isabella I still can’t believe how He worked this all out for you and in such a short time, and blessed you with a brand new house! He just made everything fall into place so perfectly!
And I am sure your daughters will enjoy the country living and the wholesome way of live just as much!
My best childhood memories were visiting my grandparents and me and my brother just playing between the fruit trees and vegetable gardens all day, every day, and the chickens!! Eating fruit from the trees and vegetables straight from the garden! Those are the best tasting fruit and veg! And then when it was time to harvest, the whole family came together to peel and chop the veggies to freeze, cook jam and preserve … Such a wonderful way of life!
And glad all the chickens, dogs and cats made it as well!!!
Yes my dear, we are so happy!! We have beans, plantains, coffee, bananas and potatoes available. We are harvesting right now, it is a complete twist for us!!! Thank you so much!!
