Mission Belize 2009

January 28, 2009 Belize

This was the first full day of work at the village of More Tomorrow. It’s been beautiful, sunny, 80F with a breeze every day. Sorry to hear about all the ice and 20F weather back home! We probably finished about a third of the job today. It’s a great group, and we’ve worked well together and had lots of laughs. The natives who have helped us seem to enjoy such and join in the joking as well.

We’re up at 6am each morning with Ed turning on the lights and yelling, “Up & at ‘em girls!” Breakfast is at 7am, followed by a 15 minute devotional. Bobby started us off today and it serving as our spiritual leader. His texts were Jeremiah 17:9 and Psalms 1:1-3.

“In prosperity be fruitful! Are you? Anyone can share – even a brand new believer. He could say, “I gave my life to the Lord; He’s leading me now.” Bobby shared his live verse is Matthew 16:25, “Who would save his life will lose it….” He went on to share “the Lord knows it, and He then judges “according to what their actions deserve.”

In the discussion that followed, Randy chimed in, “Be shiners instead of whiners!”

I’ll leave you with that and share More Tomorrow. Be blessed! -=db=-
