I Almost got
Mugged!?!

 

God was looking out
for me today.

Today my team had off,
but Miguel, our main contact her in the DR asked if anyone wanted to take an
hour to help him out and water the ground where they are going to plant some
Yuka(a potato like vegetable) tomorrow. I offered my services as I was just
relaxing for the day. So we got to the plot of land and Miguel left to run some
errands, leaving me to tend to land.

If I haven’t said
this yet, the DR is a Beautiful country! The mountains are absolutely
breathtaking. So as I was watering I took some pictures as well, not noticing
some youth that were hanging around the area. One of the youth came to talk to
me and I attempted to converse with him in my limited Spanish vocabulary. This
wasn’t going to well, but I did get across who I was and knew he wanted to look
at the pictures on my camera. So I took it back out and showed him. We tried
conversing a bit more, but I didn’t understand him, so he went on his way. Well
apparently the neighbor next to this plot of land knew these kids were bad news
and called my contact telling him to come back quick because these youth were planning
on jumping me and taking my stuff.  Crazy
huh!?

Thankfully our God is
a good God and had his angels protecting me, and used this man to keep me safe.

 I don’t tell you this to scare you but just to
say that God’s protection is upon me, and that danger is a very real element of
the World Race. But our God is a great God and He protects His children.

So this is my
life…this is the world race…and I love it.

These are just for fun 🙂
