How can I describe it? Amazing, right, fun, fulfilling, challenging… perhaps God’s will? This is how being back in Mexico feels to me. I know that this is where God wants me. I am so happy to be back! I am loving being with my original team again. They are such a blessing to me and they still continue to teach me about God, even after all this time.
I have also had the opportunity to return to my colonia and to the hospital. There are many changes and I have yet to see quit a few people, but God is at work here. The amazing part about it is that He is using me. The fact that I am able to admit that He is using ME is a minor miracle in itself. I would have never said that in September and here I am knowing and believing that it is not only that He can but that He will!
There have been many changes since I was last in Mexico. Not only am I different, but the team is different, we live in a different place, and there has been some changes in leadership. Although it has not been easy to make the changes I can see that God is going to use this in a fabulous way. (Don’t ask me what that is, I’m not God, I just know I can trust Him.)
One last thought before I end this blog: Acts 8:26 says, “Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, ‘Go south to the road – the desert road- that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.’ So he started out…” God told Philip to go. All He said was to go south, he didn’t even give Philip a destination. Philip’s response was going. He didn’t stop and ask where he was going or why he was going. He was not concerned with specifics. God said ‘Go’ and Philip did what he was told. His actions led to the fulfillment of a pretty amazing story. (Check it out.)
I want to be like Philip, obeying without needing to know the details. Trusting every step of the way that there is a reason and that God will meet every need. He loves me, why would He do any less?
