Well the traveling continues for me this summer. I am now in Tulsa with my son and his family. I am enjoying some time to bond with Will. It has been wonderful. I haven't really been able to do that as he has gotten older and it hurts my heart so I am taking the time to build that relationship that means so much to me.
My life is changing right now and it is strange because I am very much a creature of habit. I am not teaching this year. It was a bitter sweet decision for me because I love to teach and I really loved the other women I worked with everyday. But as I move ahead with my non profit, Mi Esperanza, things changing, and God wants me to come along. I will be traveling more this year and spending more time in Honduras. The program is at a critical point. We can stay where we are and continue to do what we do, which would not be a bad thing, or we can move ahead and expand the reach we have with the women and children of Honduras, and this is the road for me to take.
I have no knowledge of what I am doing...I am not trained or educated for this mission, but I guess that keeps me close to God. I know that the success is not mine, it is His alone. I am grateful for the opportunity to learn. I am grateful for the people God puts in my path who can help me in the steps I need to take...I am humbled by the way God works. I am excited for the future but am scared for my inability. I am excited for the women we can help, but I am scared for my inability, I am excited for the lives that will change, but I am scared for my inability....you get the idea???
I hold to the promises God has made in His word that He can do great things even through someone like me!
