Storms-Singing-Salvation's-Swelling Rivers-Sweet Rejoicing
Interesting title... our day began with high winds blowing,
raging waves and a tropical storm slashing the countryside. Yes, we literally
viewed a tropical storm on the radar heading directly to Honduras; an apparent
attempt to keep us stranded at the hotel for the day. Our team decided to come
together in worship and to honor our creator in song…As sons and heirs we
stepped out in our authority to calm the storm. As we prayed the winds calmed… We
shared the life of Jesus with two of our new found friends and they decided to
follow Jesus this very morning. With joyous hearts and a smile on our faces we
took communion together, then we packed up our gear and headed out to complete
the Lords work. Can't imagine a better start to the day? Calm the storm, lead someone to our Savior and
“Go” and do what the Father has sent you to do.

We monitored the rivers as we headed out this morning; some were
swollen but none in anyway able to keep us from traveling. Thank you Jesus!
Jesus you are such a sweet Savior, we love you. Today, our team painted 5 rooms
and one hallway in the girls’ house. Another team sorted all the donated clothes
and prepared them for distribution to the kids. Yet another team, moved trees
that were in the way of the new road going in. Tomorrow, more rooms to paint and
cleaning out of the pool so it can dry and get painted for the children this
summer.
A Fitting End of The Day |
Just a note.... we as a team come to bless our children but oh so often it is us that get blessed by them. Over and over today the team commented in our nightly wrap up how sweet it was to receive a letter from our kids. I tell you we give love but we get so much love, unexpected love back from these children. Our children are happy, they are giving, they are sharing, they think of others, they are so full of hugs and helpfulness it makes me wonder if I am doing enough. What about you? If you haven't received enough love today, come and receive for there is enough love for all.
Faithfully His
