Post 20.0

Wow! I can't believe that this 3 month trip is half over already! Much has happened while we have been here and I am even more expectant for what will happen in the second half of the trip. The biggest single coadherant principle that I have learned, I read fromthe Jim Elliott Biography: Shadow of the Almighty. A quote that stuck out to me in the preface was, "Obedience is an expression of love to God." and I did a word study through Blue Letter Bible of the word obedience and I learned that the word obedience means to listen or hear. While I am here in Mexico it is vital that I am listening to the voice of the Lord unto a response. Obedience is hearing what the Lord desires then acting on it, nothing pleases God more than when His children obey him. The Lord also revealed to me that obedience is not picking and choosing what I want to obey or not, obedience is following whatever God asks of me whether it is convenient or not. I got the clinical symptoms of Typhoid Fever for 7 days and during that time I was really sick, I had a lot of time to think about my life and where I have gone and ahead to where I'm going. The Lord has been speaking to me and when I get back to the States I will be attending college at MTSU and studying a pre-med major. Thank You all so much for your continued prayer support during this season of my life. I hope to connect with everyone who is reading this blog (if anyone is reading this blog) on a personal level and show you pictures and tell you all the stories of what the Lord has been doing here in Mexico. Thank you again for all your prayer support and continued prayer support, God bless you and I hope to see you soon!
