I Am Back In Guatemala

Will I have been back in Guatemala for a week now. I had a really good visit home; it was nice to see my family and friends. But it is really good to be back too. There are two more interns here now and all the hard work has started!

When I was home I had some time to reflect on what God had taught me in the last two months I was in Guatemala. It was the hardest and best thing I have ever done; spending two months by myself here. God showed and taught me so much. I have to say the underlying theme of that time was, get over yourself this life is not about you. God showed me to lay myself completely at his feet to die to myself and pick up my cross, whatever cost it takes. That I need to get out of my comfort zones and to stop making decisions based on myself and what makes me feel good or that builds up my image. I am to make decisions based on what glorifies God and proclaims His name. Sometimes that means making the hard decision and laying myself and my image at the cross and dying to selfish ambition. Being humble and letting God do what pleases Him at any cost. Because no cost is too great.
