I Feel Like Huck Finn
Buenos dias con todos! Gracias por leyendo mi blog. (good day everyone! thank you for reading my blog)
and greetings from Nauta! it feels so strange to have internet after so long. Part of me honestly didnt want to check it, didnt want to concede the wild part of me thats been alive and thriving within my jungle atmosphere. Its really interesting how much your perspective on something can change so quickly. When we first went into the jungle, we had an epic ride on a pretty big river barge. In big letters on the side was painted Capicidad 150 personas, no mas. I would estimate there were...
update from the Jungle
We (field support team) spoke with the team leaders shortly today and wanted to pass on a little update for the team since they don't have internet to post blogs. Benny & Scottie said that God has been showing up in some incredible ways as they've been ministering to people there. The team is doing really well together and the leaders are encouraged by how things are going.
If the team finds internet before they come home, they will be posting some blogs. Thanks for your prayers for them!

Writting on God´s Heart 2
I wish I could only bring every one here and give you my feelings.
On the outside it might just seem like a tourist, just amazed and excited about everything.

Some take money and run.
This sights are always new and overwhelming.
Some places are nicer on the inside than what they apear on the outside.
Everything is different.
They are in poverty here and yet that still...
I wanna Go Deeper, But I Dont Know How to Swim
Several days ago I woke up dissatisifed. Dissatisified with where I was with the Lord, dissatisfied with the status quo, dissatisfied with my level of discipleship, in short a lot of things. I began to pray that the Lord would take me deeper into His heart.
This is a dangerous prayer, and God loves it when we pray dangerous prayers. Without a risk taking personality in the spiritual realm, there is a tendancy to get complacent really fast. Complacency is the opposite of growth.
There is no growth without pain. Let that mess up your theology; I know its messed with mine. Sometimes the...
Have No Expectations!!!
Well this blog is going to have to be short to conserve time.
Yesterday as some of you know, my team and I were supposed to go up the Amazon river, and, well things dust didnt go as planed and the boat is not leaving until 4 (I think) today. This situation was really not that big of a deal to us as a team because one thing we have learned is to have no expectations and if something changes it was obviously ment to happen the way it did because NOTHING happens outside Gods will.
This blog is being posted not only to let everyone who reads it know what is going on but also as an...
