HONDURAS!!

So, here we are. Honduras has been amazing for the first week and a half,. What is amazing is that, we havent been out of the house much. As many of you have heard, there is a huge political mess here in Honduras. We are not allowed to be out after 6 pm, and the trip to the mountains has been cancelled for now, just in case war breaks out. You wanna know what is amazing though?? God has taught us all amazing lessons through this chaos. He has given Haley confirmation that we are called to stay here in the midst of this crazyness by giving her Ecc. 10:4, commanding us to stay at our posts, and remain strong, even if the ruler of the nations rise against us. Mandy has drawn closer to Jesus, and has given Him her anxiety and nervousness about the whole trip. And with me, He has really taught me to depend on Him 150%. The Lord does EVERYTHING for a reason. Last Saturday, we were supposed to be going to this place called "Casa Aliansa", which is a home for the youth that has been on the streets, but the trip got cancelled last minute. Instead, we went to a senior citizens place, and prayed with 2 really cute seniors. The next day, we found out that there were over 30 cases of Swine Flu in the youth place. We were FLOORED!! God protects His children. We serve an AMAZING God. Honestly, I know that this trip is going to be a life changing experience for the tree of us.
