One year ago.....

It is hard for me to believe that a year ago I was just coming to this country for the first time. And now a year later, here I am living. I mean in the 10days that I was here my heart was changed. There was such a calling for me to come here, but I wasn't sure why or what for. So here I am running a childrens home waiting for children. In 2 weeks a lot of my sweet friends and family will get to come here some for the first time and some for the second time or so, but I pray that there hearts will be changed and softened. Thank you for all of you who love me and support me when I am far away from home, I know that it is not easy on any of you for me to be away from you but thanks for being selfless and sharing me and loving me no matter what.

Back in Honduras

I made it back here to Honduras Thursday evening. It is good to be back! Although I did get very sick that night and the next day. Was down and out for a little while but feeling better now. We are still waiting on things with the paper work for the childrens home. Nothing too new. Cross out fingers that we get kids soon. As for now there is nothing more to really to update you on but I will keep you all updated as more things come about.

This is gonna be soooo good!

I am at home right now spending some time with some people with whom I love and miss a lot. My mom just had her 50th bday and i tried to come home and suprise her but that didn't work out so well, but at least I was here for her bday. As I have told everyone it is not so much that i miss "here" but i miss the people here. There are times when i wish the people could be there in Honduras with me. Being in Honduras is good but a lot of time it takes a lot out of you and it drains you emotionally, physically, and spiritually. So being here with so many who encourage me and love me is filling me up and good for my heart and soul. Hopefully it is good for their hearts also to see me.
I am home for the rest of next week and then i head back to Honduras on the 9th. Looking foward to my time left here to spend with so many and also looking foward to getting back to Honduras and seeing those sweet kiddos. Looking foward to when we have out first kids. It gets frustrating at times but this is a start of a ministry. Something huge and good and if it takes all of this time to get it started then so be it, it will be something that is around for years to come and change so many lifes. Not too sure why God works things out the way he does but it will come together. I am learning more and more patiences. Good things come to those who wait. So I continue to wait and trust and know that God is in control even when it seems that there are times that he is not. I just need to remember to daily put self aside and let God be in control in my life. So many times it is about me, me, me, me..... I just ask that i daily die to self.
Continue to bring this ministry before God. I know that he has blessed it in so many ways already and that he is going to continue to bless it. But he will only bless it if we let him, we need to get self out of the way. I wil keep you all updated and let ya know when we get our first kiddos. This is gonna be good!!!!!
