Day Something, Post 3 about Mexico

This is hard.  I'm not gonna lie.  I'm so happy it's Friday as after teaching I relaxed today and has some much needed alone time.

Now don't get me wrong, I have been learning so much through this trip, it's truly a blessing.  God is amazing as  I see Him in work here in people's hearts and allowing me just to get a glimpse.  God is amazing for letting me be part of His plan, but I feel that something is missing.


In james and hebrews and throughout the bible many of my readings have been about perserverance, and I think that is something God is trying to talk to me about and help to me really focus upon.  How can I help these people on a deeper level?  What does Christ bid me come do? That is the question that I struggle to answer right now, besides just teaching here, which is definitely the biggest time consumer I go through, but I feel like there is more.  Be it through guitar and singing or even just talking, I want to be used in greater ways so that is my prayer.  Would God call me, and I would answer in ways that I can’t even imagine.

Hebrews is a very convicting book for me… I highly recommend going through it slowly if you have not done so, or just even revisiting it.  I’ve ben constantly re-evalutaing myself, and I think it has been helpful to put things in perspective again, and to really see God in His glory present in His word as He reaches out to me.

But ya in effect, I feel like God is calling myself and the team here to so much more than we have been doing.  I just hope that we are able to discern His will and act upon it wholeheartedly.  As we continue to serve please pray for us.  As we seek to find ways to interract with the students on a more personal level, please pray for us.  As we live daily with our bodies getting pushed with fatigue, would God become so much more in our lives.  And would we just continue to burn with this fervor this desire even back home, as we can see how people there are in need as well of God's grace.  Thanks to all who have been praying and the few that have been reading this blog.  Continue to check out the team blog at ichthusmexico2012.wordpress.com for updates from the rest of team. :)

God bless!
