The trip was soooo long, way to long for my taste, i'll be doing great if i dont see another airport for awhile!
The Lord has been so Good. the first day, after a very hard goodbye from the fam, He led me to my devos while waiting for my plane. it turned out to Heb 11. the chapter on faith. It was great reading about abraham especially, because even though he didnt know where he was going, he knew God had called him and he followed.
thats exactly how Im feeling right now! (minus the fact that i know im in Bolivia) I'm still not sure why God has called me here, granted its still the first day, and right now im questioning why im here for so long. lol
the Lord has continued to provide me with comforting verses, as well as people that speak english! however when english speakers are scarce he has brought back to my mind the few tidbits of spanish i remember.
Plzzzz keep praying for peace of mind for me. I'm finding out that it seems like everyone here right now is leaving by mid august. a few every week. right now it seems like im going to be alone, i know God can bring others. the host family im staying with is leaving too, and someone else is taking there place.
Plzz keep praying that im a blessing to the people here. pray that i fit in well with the volunteers that are here now.
Thank you for keeping me in your prayers! Im so gratefull for the courage to fly by myself, He arranged for me to meet people that helped with papers, as well as getting me to the right gates.
last thing, my wi-fi is not working as of right now, but hopefully the guy in charge can fix that when he gets back tonight!
miss ya all! hope to write soon.

ReplyDeleteI admire your courage and ambition to experience this in your life. I'm sure God is working his majestic plan for you and I pray for your continued joy, peace and good health as you share your love and beautiful smile with these Bolivians! It certainly humbles us when we must come out of our 'comfort zone', but it seems that you're adjusting well...
