Week #2
As the week began we were all excited but nervous at the same time. It was our first actual week in Costa Rica and God could have not done anything better!
We helped in a bible store in downtown San Jose and then we also helped the gracious souls at WYAM. Even in the times that we didn’t see the point in in what we were doing or how it would help lead other in Christ, a girl in our group said, “Jesus would do this.” That was one of the strongest and most heartfelt sentences anyone could have ever said! Now every time I catch myself saying “this is pointless” or “why am I doing this?” I just think would Jesus do this? And that gives me motivation to keep doing the Lords work because it will be worth it in the end!
During one of the morning worship services we had a speaker come and she told us that we are the light and the spark for the next generations to come! So I tell you young teens, whatever God is telling you to do, DO IT! We are strong enough to make a spark and then sit back and watch God make a fire from that one spark! Do not underestimate what The Lord will do because he will literally blow you out of the water!
God is good and I hope we all become that spark to start that fire for God!
God bless,
