As I leave I struggle. I am sick. I am upset. And I want with everything in me to stay. I said goodbye today and honestly it totally stunk. I sat with my squad leader and said, “I want to stay. I think I should stay.” Hear my heart, this place, these people, this ministry changed me. The relationships that were built here are ones that I hope to carry with me forever. I had hosts that loved me even though they knew after a month, they might not see us again. But they loved us, they gave us their wisdom, their time, and an ear to listen to whatever we had on our minds. And I honestly fell in love with this place. It makes me sick to my stomach to think I am leaving here tomorrow.
God spoke to me and said, “I DO NOT CHANGE.” So while ministry might change. While hosts change, shelter situations change, food changes, culture changes, and teams change,
GOD IS CONSTANT.
So as I go to Nicaragua I go with the charge that He has called me there and that though a lot of things will be different, He isn’t. And that if we seek after Him, He will speak and He will use each and every situation to bring us closer to Him. When we ask for more of Him, to get more of an understanding, He will show that to us. The Bible says, ASK, SEEK, and you shall find. (Matthew 7:7) So ask the Lord to reveal things to you, seek the answers, and they will be revealed to you.
No matter where I go, or who I am with I have one mission. That is to run after every lost soul. because God is running after every lost soul. And that will not change no matter where I go.
