So far away and yet so near!
That is how I am feeling about Mexico right now~ My heart is very much there and my body is very much here. I have been praying, thinking, praying and dreaming about Mexico.
Mexico is now in my blood stream. What can I say? That is the best analogy I can say to explain how I am now. All the things that I was afraid of were as nothing. Those things I had heard and thought "oh no".....were less than nothing. The LORD is in Mexico doing an amazing job through amazing people. It is all HIM....yet HE uses who HE chooses!
I left behind so many dear friends as we drove away from Chihuahua. I loved being with LightShine ......and wish we could of been there more. The kids. The staff. Hearts opening to God's love. The love and affection and all the diverse personalities....what joy!
Being there for the Marriage Conference was really really a blessing. If you are married you never will (or should never) out grow hearing about biblical marriage and all the challenges, struggles, joys and blessings of walking with your spouse hand in hand with your God. I was amazed at the honest questions asked at the Q&A session. People really do want to know how to live for Jesus Christ. Dave and I enjoyed getting to know Marcos and Alma (Dave's translator) and thank the LORD for them. Of course getting to know Heather & Chris and Lisa and Sean was a true blessing. God has his servants all over this globe serving HIM and HIS people.
My heart and life will never be the same. I am changed. I am humbled. I came face to face with my own selfishness of heart. I saw with new eyes. My heart beats differently now. I see the LORD's heart in a new way. Chihuahua is in me now. I pray, I think, I pray for Chihuahua and all those whom I love there!
Do your work, Oh Lord, and be glorified!
Gratefully His, Lynette
