Gratitude




I should have written before now, but I wanted to wait til I had time to really sit down without any distractions. It has been a week now since I returned from Honduras but the experience is still laying heavy on my heart. In junior high i made my "bucket list" but at the time I just considered it a list with all i wished to accomplish. One item on that list was to go on a mission trip, my only regret is that I didn't go sooner. I have never felt so strongly the presence of God in each step i took along this journey. God humbled me in a way my heart needed. My prayer is to remember each day how i felt while in Honduras, I desire to follow God each day and to serve others. For so long it seems like I have put such emphasis on myself. I have frequently gotten my desires confused as needs. I hope to stay grounded and keep my eyes and heart where they belong, on Jesus.

  1. Oh...thanks for leaving me a message...I would've never found your blog! I am babysitting a little boy Noah today and I was thinking of your Noah this morning! Things went well at the show..we are waiting on two potential deals to become reality--only then we can breathe a sigh of relief!

    I am super sad I will miss the "reunion," but we committed to go to my sis-in-law's graduation over a year ago! Oh, well, hopefully there will be another one.

    Anytime you wanna come to HG, give me an email. It's Mondays in Sabraton...6pm dinner and 7-8pm study, with babysitters for the study.

    Hope all is well!

    Love,
    Nina
