To God be the Glory, forever and ever, Amen!

By the end of the day tomorrow, God would have allowed me to work on four house sites this week. I have been sick, throwing up, pooping my guts out and yet He has given me the strength and the courage to continue to help. The best part about building a house is, at the end of the day, when its all said and done and the person who you built the house for is standing there, with big tears in their eyes saying, "To God be the glory," or "My God I thank you for this house," or the best one of all, "God, you have answered my long awaiting prayer for me and my children, thank you."

God is faithful... if you look deep enough you will find Him everywhere. Its so cool!
God is faithful and the people of Honduras continue to show me how little faith I have, compared to their lives of faith. God, may the Glory always be for you, forever and ever, Amen!

I said to myself, "Self, get out of the freakin way!"

From the issues here in Honduras, to the economic unrest in the states, sometimes it all just gets overwhelming. However, isn’t it comforting knowing that our God is always there?!? This what we are always told, taught and what we all want to feel. Sometimes its hard though and I guess that is our human side coming out. The side that wants to be able fix the problem or issue right away and the side that can’t always come to the rescue. This is troubling for most of us, mostly me. I hate not having enough money to help everyone all day, everyday. I hate not being able to go and buy tires for our truck and worrying everyday if the tires will last. I hate not being able to go out and build houses everyday of the week. I hate not knowing where the next amount of money is going to come from or how much it will be.

But God is faithful, this much I know. Whenever you need someone to talk to, He is always there. When you need some guidance and direction in your life, He is always there. God is always there. I know that I shouldn’t stress and worry about money , I know that Our God has and will always continue to take care of what He has called me to do. God is always faithful, there is always enough money (just enough, which means it is coming from Him, he knows every need and every cost), there is always enough ways to serve the poor and needy. His grace and His actions are all sufficient. I just need to learn to be still and know that He is God and that I am not
