20 things I’ve been learning in Guatemala
- Trusting the Lords sovereignty even when it seems like you’re only doing small things
- Leaning into the Lords grace to have grace for myself
- Walk in weakness. The Lord is perfected in our weakness.
- When the Father looks at us, He sees holy and blameless.
- There are no street laws in guatemala!
- Even when it’s a hard, not knowing a language brings so much simplicity to life.
- Honest, vulnerable conversation brings so much truth and healing.
- Guatemala has the best chai I’ve ever had!
- We have the choice to actually listen to what the Lord is speaking.
- He is more than enough.
- Exploring a new country is SO much fun!!
- Be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger.
- My dependence must be first and foremost on the Lord.
- The Lord is oh so faithful in the little things.
- How to de-lice myself and my team! (HAHA)
- Being steadfast in the Lord and carrying His steadfastness.
- To love with my mind, not only my actions.
- To see people the way He sees them- beautiful and washed clean.
- Do not put toilet paper in the toilet! It goes in the trash can right next to the toilet!
- We are refined so we can share His holiness! (Hebrews 12:10)
Wow Haley!! How exciting to hear about all you’ve learned! I just know you are a blessing to everyone as you grow in your faith and trust in the Lord!!??
Haley, I bet this is just the FIRST twenty and you could probably keep going. Isn’t it wonderful how the Lord is ever teaching us, ever molding us to more perfectly reflect His likeness? I’m so thankful He’s never finished with me! I love reading all of these, but number seventeen has struck me today: Love with my mind, not only my actions. I’m going to sit with that one. I think it’s something I need to grow in. If it’s something God has been teaching you about while in Guatemala, I’d love to hear more about that. Thanks for sharing and spurring me on in areas where I need to learn and grow as well!
