A great day and A great night

The morning progressed into a thunderstorm of birdsong. It was the most beautiful sound as you stared across the lake watching the fisherman. As I prayed for Luis, I felt a calmness come over me.. A peace that only Christ could give me. I said before in my previous blog that the "why Questions were flying through my head" I don't pretend that I have all the answers and I am confident my Lord is there with him and his family. But, as I sat in this synphony of sound and site, I felt a calm come over me and I knew the day was going to be blessed.

Just watching the fisherman on the lake brings thought of the gospel story of the disciples and Jesus crossing the Lake and Jesus calming the storm and rebuking the wave.

The storm in my heart was calmed and any thought of why was rebuked.

I prayed

For Luis

for the day

for my family 

for all of you

for Cerro de Oro

for the families of the houses we were to serve

for the team

for me

And I worshipped my Lord 

PEACE, GRACE, MERCY, HOPE, PERSEVERENCE

The team gathered for breakfast and we headed for the village.

I have to get going. No me right now. SO. I will leave you with a teaser of pictures.

I am sorry,but not really

I started to feel sleeping after dinner last night and took advantage of my condition.

I went to bed

and was asleep all night

thus no night blog

The internet here is very weak and we get kick off all the time.

could not even get on to say hi or call Amy and my kids

or even send a message

so I was asleep

Here is your teaser for the first day

sorry so short

I will do a couple of massive photo blogs tonight

This last photo is of one of the families that we are building a home for.

Thank you all for praying.

I feel a great day ahead

One that will glorify God

Sorry I was asleep all night, but not really.

God blessed me with sleep to prepare for today.

I am awake now and thinking;

"here am I Lord.............................."

Off to breakfast and Cerro de Oro for the day.
