I stumbled across this prayer that I wrote a few weeks ago when I was looking back through my old journal entries and I felt that it really encompasses what I am asking for from the Lord and also what He is teaching me so I figured it would be a good blog entry to share with you all…. I thank you so much that you promise you are retuning God and that you call me to be doing your work, I pray that you would be using me God. I commit to you, I say “yes”. I do not want to be “sleeping” when you return Lord. (Mark 13:37) God teach me of your ways, quiet my...

If you ever find yourself in search for the importance of life, leave behind everything you consider to be important. Somewhere in this foreign land, I seemed to have discovered it. After one month of living here in Nicaragua, my perceptions seemed to have slowly changed from my self-centered life style that I was so accustomed to into something much greater than myself. Everything I ever wanted was right at my fingertips and catering to myself was, sadly, a top priority. Of course looking back, I would have never thought that was the case; at least I would not have admitted it. In one...

Hello! Sorry I have been the biggest slacker about blogging. Welp. For those of you who haven't had the chance to check out all the pictures on Facebook, here are a few commemorating some excellent moments from the past few weeks: We were invited to go on a day-trip with the church from Bethel! Such a fun day 🙂 This is a picture of the hike we took down the mountain. Interesting, eventful trip… Lindsey and I with some friends from Leon. The precious little girl on my lap is named Namari. She is my buddy when we go to the basketball court to play with...

EVERYTHING. Best Valentine’s Day ever. I don’t want to ever think of Valentine’s Day the way I did before today again. And I know I won’t. I hadn’t even been really excited about this day, hadn’t thought of it much. I realized all of a sudden that being out of America for this holiday has allowed me to see the true meaning in it… I haven’t been blinded by the red and pink that fills every single aisle and store window and every T.V. commercial. This day snuck up on me with no preparation or expectation on my part… Just like...

I was blown away this Valentine's day by the men on our team. Ryan, my co-leader, and our guys Marcus and Josh absolutely blessed our socks off when it came to loving us women. Honey, you got a lot to live up to. 🙂 Josh, Marcus and Ryan I woke up early to have my time with the Lord, walking out to my normal spot that looks out over the palm trees and the green fields. After a few minutes, I notice our guys sneakily setting up something on the other side of the building…. Out of respect for their surprise, of course I didn't...

To be honest, some days aren't all that I imagine them to be. To be honest, I don't feel like doing much. To be honest, I'm often homesick. To be honest, I'm frustrated about not always being able to communicate. To be honest, I'm not sure I'm making a difference and some days feel like a waste. To be honest, God is much bigger than those five things (lies, doubts,worries). To be honest, God is teaching me a whole heck of a lot personally. To be honest, We just finished building a house for one of our cooks. To be honest, I receive many of the sweetest and...
