A church went to Honduras on a work trip in the last few weeks. Here is one of their impact stories.
Most of our mornings in Los Charcos were spent working on the addition to the church building. We worked alongside some of the local people and with our translators (women from Tegucigalpa).
We REALLY could have used more supplies, especially BUCKETS.
Our leader Tim just said, "We've only got two buckets." And he gently pointed out that the local people were content with our progress.
So we just paced ourselves with that.... No quick fixes, but time to take in our surroundings, our teammates, and our own bodies (rest, water, work).
As I reflect on it now, I realize that "only two buckets" is good for me to remember each day. God has in mind His pacing for my life and sometimes He might only want me to use "two buckets" to accomplish it.
Slow down. Take a breath. Take a nap. Think about things that are happening and your perspective about them for a while today. Love you.
