How big is the probability to go to a country not knowing where to go, where to sleep, what to eat, what to do, but finding everything prepared?!
That's exactly what happened to us in Mexico. Gracias Señor - Thank you Lord!
We believe in God and not in probabilities, God had everything prepared, the whole 2 weeks in Mexico seemed like a present, showing just a drop of God's amazing love. So many times we got invited to eat in restaurants, people of the church were bringing us so much food that in the end was enough left to stay another week. Life in abundance.
From that experience on another adventure awaited us: we continued this “Luke 10 -Journey” and split up our team in three groups. The conditions were the same, the goal this time was Guatemala, 1350km away. What I learned is that on a Luke 10 journey we have food, and we have a place to stay, because God has already planned everything, we just don't know where our place is or how the food gets into our stomachs. God is faithful:
“Look at the crows: they don't sow seeds or gather a harvest; they don't have storerooms or barns; God feeds them! You are worth so much more than birds!”
(Luke 12:24 GNB) God provided everyday for us! Gracias Señor!
The aim of a “luke 10” is to trust God to encounter the right people and be used by God to change their life's. One Lady we got to know very well on our journey was Romy. She opened her house and bought food for us for 4 days until we had to leave. God really did something in her heart, she was totally open to us and we could pray deep into her life. God even healed her from pain in her left chest! For me it was so cool to see how God is using two different kind of people in need and bringing them together to bless each other. We needed a place to sleep and food, Romy needed her house to be painted and healing. In these 4 days we were able to paint her whole house, while Romy was blessing us with food, taking us to the beach and the church.. “ “My thoughts,” says the Lord , “are not like yours, and my ways are different from yours. As high as the heavens are above the earth, so high are my ways and thoughts above yours.”
(Isaiah 55:8-9 GNB) This shows just a little bit of how God was planning, we can't really understand the whole picture, but we can definitely surrender our plans the Lord! Gracias Señor!
Meanwhile we arrived all save in Mexico and a new adventure is waiting for us: Traveling in five days to Costa Rica. Please keep my team and me in your prayers.
Be blessed!
