So, if you didn't know already, I made it back safely last Wednesday night. Exhaustion physically, spiritually, and emotionally was only the beginning. A day full of rest and some lovely time with the family followed. I am still in a not-so-normal state, still getting acquainted with life here again. I am so blessed to be back, I have learned so much more than I expected. This trip was such a blessing in so many ways. The way the Lord provided my every need and granted me everything. I thank each and every one of you for your prayers, for they were surely felt. Our God is faithful always. I believe that God's plan and desire for the trip was accomplished. I was able to be used by the Lord in exciting new ways, and I view the Body of Christ differently now. My feelings still are a little numb.
The Church of Honduras is so much more dependent on God than I have seen. They don't have nukes stockpiled to provide security. They call on God, for they know He is their source of wellbeing. Before I departed I was able to witness the abnormal response to the recent tragic occurrences sending fear throughout the country. "God is with us," and "God will take care of us" sum it up well. This unnatural reflex is quite amazing to me. God is our provider and keeper, if only we would turn to grasp this truth.
I would love to chat with any one of you about my experience. Each attempt to convey this time falls short, but I love to share it, it helps me process the journey. Please feel free to ask. This experience wasn't just for me, It was for you, too.
I will leave you with some U2.
"One Love, One Blood, One Life, You've got to do what you should"
Go in Peace and with courage.
