Goodbye Nicaragua. You were an amazing first month… despite getting sick. I could have lived without that. It was a month of hard work and perseverance. But my favorite thing about Palacaguina was it was a month of prayer and community. The people that we worked with were amazing and so fun to bee around. The minute we walked into the door we were family. It was incredible seeing so much love for each other and for their devotion to doing the Lord’s will. Everyday should be covered in prayer and unfortunately this principle is not practiced. It’s always in the hard times that we pray and it is a habit I am on a mission the break in my life. This month is were I came to realize this fact, all because we all started falling apart. There was never a moment that I recall that one or more of us were struggling physically. But were we were lacking physically we were overflowing spiritually. It was so refreshing to be around people who were on the same page and in tune with the Spirit. I spent so much time reading the Bible, praying and worshiping the Lord that I cannot imagine a day not getting up and starting my day with him. I think the reason I came to this conclusion for myself (which is so sad) is there was no wifi. I was literally in a village, I went to Granada and had reverse culture shock. I’m in constant distraction back home, I get lost in a schedule were I pencil the Lord in. Which is not how a relationship works. I am glad I have wifi now and can post so y’all know I’m still alive but I pray that I don’t trip on civilization.
I learned a lot back in Palacaguina… about community, perseverance, encouragement, serving with a willing heart and being in completely focussed on Jesus not matter what happens.
I am now in Costa Rica. It is an all squad month! Which is so awesome cause I missed the rest of my WR fam! It’s an intense mission month… please be in prayer for my squad as we go out to further the Kingdom and that we are all 100% physically.
