A piece of my journal on my flight back to the United States
I'm on the flight back home and Im estatic at what God has done this past week. This trip was an oppurtunity I do not take for granted. Im honored that God has allowed me to share his goodness with the others. I saw a church hundreds of miles away with the same spirit as my own in San Antonio. San Jose is in the middle of revival filled with on fire teenagers, what a wonderful thing. I cant wait to see what God has in store. Limon has the ablity to burst with their powerful few. God is moving in Costa Rica!
Hermosos son los pies..del que publivca salvacion. Isaiah 52:7
The people of Costa Rica dont have much so when a sister from the San Jose church gave me a wooden bookmark with the words above painted on it, I was extremely touched. This is one of the most sweetest gifts I have ever recieved.
This is mi amigo Guillermo! He loved to sing LOUD and clap on the buses, church song after church song. He pretty much got everyone on board! Talk about a high energy old man! Easily put me to shame. HA! This was Richard Lantz best friend. Im pretty sure they didnt understand a word that was exchanged. Guillermo didnt know a lick of english and well Richard is white as heck but whatever they did IT WORKED!
This is his wife and she is a lovely woman, quiet and sweet. For the life of me I cannot remember her name but I do remember that while Guillermo was running around witnessing to EVERYONE, she quietly followed while humming a tune AND guillermo witnesses to everybody.. Literallly everyone he spoke with, he led them into the sinners prayer. It was amazing!
Meet Patricia! My dear friend! Her and I were instant friends and joint at the hip. Somehow through my broken spanish we were able to communicate, however it was the laughter that connected us. We laughed about everything I dont even know what! I'll never forget our last day she invited me to her home and cooked for us. She made the best Chicken Soup! MMmm I can taste it as I write. She lives with her mom, her sister, and her little boy and their apartment is so tiny I dont even know how they all fit in it. Craziness! But what a sweet beautiful spirit she has. I miss her.
