Godseeking lifestyle becoming reality and practical.

Mendoza... 4000km to Lima Peru via Bolivia and only 5 days to do it in a limited budget.

Yes we arrived in Mendoza, Argintina and got the task to meet them in Lima, Peru in 5 days time with limited money. Our fist day we just rested at a hostel and figured everything out and really seeked God in our journey and how He wants us to travel.  The whole lime team experienced to travel to peru through Bolivia, which makes the yourney 1000km more than through Chilli. We started looking at prices for busses and trains, but because of our little money that just didn´t fit in the budget, yet.  But we still decided to go through Bolivia and take that change.

We started our journey by hitch hiking for the first 1000km. And how faithfull God was by providind so many lifts for us. And in that we experienced God& acute;s sence of humour. Some lifts we would struggle to fit our bags and ourselves in and then the next lift would be a truck or we would have to split up into 2 truck that is driving together, so having a lot of fun with the variety of lifts we got and of course not paying for it helped a lot.

Since we didn´t have a lot of money we slept in an mini market at a garage taht is open for 24 hours. Yes we did get a lot of stares and funny looks, but we still did it since it was warmer in there that outside ( It is currnetly winter in South America).

Our third night we decided to take a bus all the way to the border of Boliva and Argentina. Keep in mind this is the 4 day and we only had 24 hours left to meet the team in Lima. Well our first lift in Bolivia was a taxi taht took us 266km in 7 hours. Bolivia is full of mountains so the road is not that easy to travel, then we realized that we are going to be late.

But in that the teams spirit was so positive and we still saw God providing and having His hand over us. He really looked out fo us.
So eventually after 73 hours of bus rides from Bolivia we arrived in Lima. But the team has already left for anothet town where we will be staying. So there we got a bus all the way to team. We had to wait 2 hours for the bus, so decided to shower at a hostel before we see the team... I mean that was the first shower in a week´s time.

Luckily we were not late, we arrived in time for the course ( Touching hearts) that we are doing for the next 6 days.
So even in us being late, we still experienced God and learned a lot. God protected us through everything, He provided for our needs and were just there every step of the way. He also worked in Lime as a team and I believe we are a team for the firts time and how we grew closer to each other and to Him.

And even though I don´t know what the reason is for us to be late, I believe that there is fruit in our journey and we just won´t see it. And we won´t see what the people or place would be like if we weren´t there. So still just trusting God that it was the right thing we did and that he worked through us and that He will water any seeds that we sowed.
