Here is a small glimpse of what God has been doing here in Guatemala. God speaking to us in unimaginable ways. God has been giving our team visions and dreams. Pictures of lost souls and buildings that would hear and see the name of Jesus. Encounters with atheists that also got revisited, various baristas, local ministries. He has been speaking into the barren and deserted areas of our life. He gave us children to hold and adore. He gave us hands to restore and bring a children’s library back to life. He gave us each other to intentionally minister into our lives. I got rebaptized this past weekend in the San Marcos Laguna! Ministry has looked different almost every day here, from playing soccer and doing hopscotch with God’s little one’s, to painting pictures to give to locals sitting on the corner of the street.
There has been a little bit of a language barrier, but I believe God is an unlimited God where He can move through many things, we just got to let Him! God is such a BIG God, He can speak to and through many avenues in our lives. Even though many of us are not fluent in Spanish,
I heard God speak into my spirit yesterday, I taught you how to write, so use it!
So, three friends and I went to a local coffee shop where we sat down writing out scriptures, testimonies, and encouraging words in Spanish on flashcards. Afterward, we would hand them out to those we saw while walking down the street. We attempted to evangelize to a local down by the lake, but in reality he ministered to us. We engaged in conversation for about twenty minutes and he spoke truth to us all the way FROM GENESIS TO REVELATION YALL! It was a blessing getting to interact with him.
There has been so much life, community, FREEDOM and hope wrapped into the past 4 weeks. And we still have one more week to cherish, here in Guatemala.
Your support has been so incredible to me over the past few weeks. There have been times I have felt homesick, but I know I am just being stretched! God hasn’t called me to comfort, but to learn to be flexible, reworked for His Kingdom!!!!
