These kind of trips are definitely life changing
I received an invitation one morning by the grace of God, and after a few days I was already with missionaries navigating the Ucayali River
Heading to three different communities, 18 hours from Pucallpa
We were all ready and willing to teach discipleship tools just as Jesus did
To evangelize the people who had not heard about God in years and change lives through the love and grace of God
Every calling has its challenges
"We are one hour traveling
and missing 16 hours more
Great"
The love of God to the people is expressed through our hands
our company and example, our smile, our time and money
You enter into a whole new culture and from there you get to the conclusion that Jesus is the universal language
It is the material with which God made us and wherever you are, where you've been born or from whatever race or culture you are, any division falls
expired
because of your essence
the material with which you are made, believer or non-believer, proclaims your heart
"we arrive"
This changes completely your perspective of your surroundings
Things you were used to know take their right place: the place of A incredible blessing
Talk about Jesus Christ becomes your strength, it becomes your comfortable seat, your bug spray, your pain reliever, your covered silverware, your feather pillow, your cold beverage, your warm coat at night
The electricity you need
Then, speak of God's love is the only thing that matters to you
Perhaps without having taken your morning coffee first or without having gone to take a swim in the river
To be effective is essential as we may not be able to stay a long time
To be like a torch which lightens extinguished candles is part of the service. But above all, to teach others how to lighten their own and righteous fire within their household that would help them grown and not burn it down, is the most satisfying of all
It's part of making imitators of Jesus in every sense: to make disciples who make disciples
To bless them and bless their generations
The glory is all for God
"We are in the church "13" and it started to rain again
Children are having fun
Has been a great experience in my life, and thank you very much to God. And thank you for all your prayers
Say hello to the camera
Great"
They are still in my mind and in my heart. Every elder, every child, every young person
every smile, every moment is still treasured in me
I know that I will definitely return and see the leaders who have been trained with love doing what they've learned about grace
I pray for more hearts willing to step into action. Now everything I have learned, I'll return. By Grace I received, by grace I shall give
I would like to thank all of you who helped me financially to join this trip and to all of you who were involved. Thank you for your prayers
And to those of you who for even a moment I passed by your thoughts and they were of good
God bless you
Thank you very much
John 13.35: "By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
