From Laredo, Peru to Cochabamba, Bolivia. Safe and filled to the brim with new percpectives, new joys, and new reasons.
Before this week I thought that I had it all together. That every HUGE thing in my life had already been dealt with. During a very instense worship night, after exhaustion from traveling and the altitude I finally came to a place where all I could sob was
"Strip me bare"
I am so thirsty and hungry to be back in a spot with God in which I am not in control of anything. In which my prayers are raw, my thoughts are of Him, and my actions scream "God is big in your life!".
So Ive been waking up in the mornings and asking for just that. To stay raw. And real. And open and childlike.
We are here in Bolivia and we will be working with orphans! Mainly playing with them, helping them with their homework, connecting with them, and showing them that God loves them. Super excited to learn from them; I know that they have a lot to teach me about childlike faith and hope.
The city we are in (Cochabamba) has the second largest open market in South America and the second largest statue of Jesus in the world.
We are living in a hostel here and for the past two nights have spent a lot of time together as a team. I absolutely love it.
