I have come to realize, no matter where I go, my heart will hurt. I came into Nicaragua with a broken heart, a heart yearning to be the place I just left. As time went by, I fell head over heels, AGAIN.
Why God? Why? Why must I go somewhere new and just fall in love. AGAIN? I’ve come to realize, that isn’t a bad thing. It’s the way God created me to be. To fall in love with people I meet, no matter where it might be.
Maybe a bible study, the street, church, a hostel, a restaurant, there are so many places to just meet and love someone. There are two particular friendships I will miss from this month.
Nicaragua, you have been a sweet month for me. A month full of worship, truth, and friendships, and tomorrow you come to an end. I wanted to be with you more. Spend more time with you, your people, your culture. But sadly, my dearest Nicaragua, my time with you has ended.
Will I see you again, or is this our last goodbye?
It is hard to love, especially when you know you must leave. But that is what we are called to do, LOVE. When it is hard, when it is easy, it doesn't matter, JUST DO IT.
But as I leave this beautiful country, I will whisper …
I will miss you.
Abel and Marvin.
More on ministry of Nicaragua soon, just trying to soak up and give all the love I can before we leave.
