Why?


Throughout the past few days I have encountered a few situations that have made me ask "why am I so blessed?". Why did God give me the amazing family and friends, a nice house to live in, a well paying job, a nice car..the list could go on. Along with this question, why do I have it so nice while a majority of the people in the world live in a house made of metal, not knowing when their next meal will be. God did bless me with the material aspects in life but I too often find myself being caught up in the material addictions which doesn't leave much room for the spirtual addiction. That is one thing I love about the Hondurans, their faith is unimaginable. They live in such poverty but their trust and faith in God is something that I have all to often fallen short of. My Tio Walter that lives in Honduras always says, "trust God". It seems so easy to say and so hard to do but really how hard do we try?

Be the change you wish to see in the world.


11 days until we leave for Honduras!!
