The Mission Trip to Eucador-Part 2

-
Image
I wrote about the reason we went to Eucador. This entery is about the other side of this adventure. The side when we actually toured the country and learned about it and its people more. The side that we spent a whole day and a half exploring. The Sunday that we were there we went to church in the town that we were staying in and that we were helping out. The pastor of that church was the pastor that was trying to get the gospel told in the mountains and we were helping him get that started. We were one of the 1st few groups of people there, if not the 1st, to help him. We went to the church to see what it was all about. It was a pretty building inside made of all wood and had plastic chairs to seat in. You would have no idea that it was a church from the outside because it looked pretty small. I think it was one of the few churches even in the city because we stayed right by a really big Catholic church on the square and it was a very fancy one inside. Anyways, after church, we went...

The Mission Trip to Eucador

My mission trip to Eucador was different but in a good way. It was a new experience for me which is always good and I knew it would be because it was a new country and there was a new goal for the mission trip. One goal that I never thought I would be apart of or want to go do but it was fun and very meaningful. First, it was the airports that we had to go to. Of course, XNA wasn't that bad but we had to be there so early and got back so late. The 2nd airport was the one in Miami, FL. It was nice and big with a lot of things to do but when you have to stay there 8 hours both ways it does kind of get boring and tiring. Second, it was in the mountains which I love and the weather was a lot cooler then Mexico or Guatamala. It was Fall like weather on the other side of the line.The mountains were so pretty. I always say that pictures could not do the justice that we saw on the trip. I will say that alitude sickness is not something to mess with espically if you are going to go up pas...

A Prayer for Teachers about Spiritual Warfare

A Prayer about Spiritual Warfare for Teachers Dear Daddy, I want to say a prayer for my teacher friends. You know that we have a hard time during the school year. We get more sleepy easier, worry more, forget things a lot more, we shorten time for important things because we are busy all the time. Please keep the teachers from Spiritual apathy during the school year. Keep them in Your Hands and don't let them go. Help them stand firm in You. Watch over them and comfort them. Hold them tight. Let them recognize the source when they are down and fill them back up with what is right, true, and noble. Let the Fruits of the Spirit just overflow from them. Please keep the teachers from physical fatigue during the school year. Keep them going with the energy that they need throughout the day. Let them rest on the weekends espically on Sunday which is the day of rest. Help them prioritize restfulness as a spiritual discipline along with prayer,serving, and other thin...

Rooted in Christ

Ephesians 1:1-14 These are spiritual blessings from God: I'm chosen I'm made blameless.  I'm adopted. I'm redeemed (saved) from the darkness, the laws, and sins. I'm forgiven.  I'm at peace with God and others. I'm sealed with the Love of God. WHY? Am I sealed with the Love of God: Ephesians, Chapter 1: It’s according to his love. (1:4) Because he is rich in grace. (1:7) It’s his his eternal purpose. (1:5, 8, 11) So that his glory will be praised. (1:14) Chapter 2 He is Rich in Mercy (2:4) Because of his great love (2:4) Because of immeasurable grace and kindness (2:5) It’s a gift (2:8) So that we would walk in good works (2:10)

1 Cor. 9:19-27 WWJD? Grew up during that time. In the 1990s. Nowadays you wouldn't be caught with that today.   Col. 3:1-10 Verse 5-kill the sinful things in you because you are in God's glory. Verse 10-live like Christ Live like God-put on Godly things like love because it puts everything together Have to live like: -mercy -kindness -patience -forgive -it's okay to mess up Saved for a purpose-Show God's light in the dark world.
