Honduras - Day 5

10/12/2016

He [Jesus] also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. “Truly I tell you,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.” – Luke 21:2-4 NIV

Today, if all goes well (yes that was intended), we should be finishing up the development of the water well. And while it may feel great to be able to help out this community in a much needed way, I believe it is important to remember that we give out of the abundance with which God has blessed us. However, as we have worked among these people, whom the world would call poor, they have shown us great kindness and generosity. They used what little they have to feed and bless us. I must wonder, as Jesus said of the poor widow, if they are the ones who have given more than any of us on our team.

Pray: It is important for those we serve to not feel like a project. Pray that God will use us to both meet the physical needs of the community and also to help to see the value God places on them as His creations—created in His image and loved enough to send His Son to die for them. Also, please pray for the women of the community who served us meals with such great generosity.

Amado por Dios!

    I've been a husband for 28 years and am the father of five children, three boys and two girls, ages 24 and under.

    My vocational years have been an eclectic mix of software developer, electrical and manufacturing engineer, manager, and even five years as a worship pastor. So, I guess it only stands to reason that my aspirations as an author are equally unique. As an author it is my desire to challenge one's mind with what ifs, one's heart with if only, and one's sense of justice with if not me.
