So far the World Race has not been what I thought it would be. Last month we stayed in a nice house in a nice city and the ministry was not what I thought it would be. This month in Haiti we are staying in a nice house at a nice school next to the Carribbean Ocean. We have been painting a fence during the week and helping with a Sunday School on Sundays.
I have learned to constantly been relying on God to give me willingness everyday to keep on painting. Its difficult when I know that there is an entire village right outside the fence that needs to hear the Gospel. I have to pray constantly for Him to give me the motivation to keep painting.
God is working to break me this month. He wants me to stop questioning and trust Him. He wants me to know that even though I see no point in painting a fence, it is for Him and He has a reason for it. Just like I don't understand how I can see so many starving and innocent kids but I can't give them food. God has His reasons and they are not for me to know. I just need to trust that it is for a reason, and be greatful for everything He is doing for this country and for our team. We may be painting a fence the entire time we are here, but I am greatful that I can paint while looking at the Carribbean Ocean.
