Prayer

Today, we had a chance to attend a church inside of the hotel grounds that is also attended by the other missionaries and their families and 2 other missions trip groups. The preacher spoke of prayer and how the key is for us to see how God is so great and not what He can or should do, if that makes sense. In other words, we are to see His greatness, His immense capabilities, His outstanding love and know that whatever happens, God is great and not necessarily that the prayer was answered.

After church, we headed off to the mercado (market place) for some shopping…yay! Just kidding. I’m not a huge shopper, only buying two things myself, but the day was beautiful with on-and-off rain to spice up the shopping. One man, who I talked to, was such a blessing to just hear his story, to slow down and listen to the people that we’re bartering and buying stuff from. Sunday night ended with an enormous dinner, night devotional time, and the “family” game night.

They're keeping me busy, so the posts may be short, but God is doing a ton despite the little I have time to tell you of.
