India Con't

Hello again!! Lets start with a little update. Since the last time I have wrote to you I have been sick, road in a car that comfortably seats 5 with 10 people, including one on my lap for total 3 hours, that is both ways so only an hour and a half at a time, and done about 15 programs. I don't know how else to express my joy for India. Nothing the same ever happens. Everyday is a new adventure. Like today, our driver got a little lost and we were late for church but we still got there and were able to do our program and the people really seemed to enjoy it. Oh I forgot to mention that it is rainy season here and it has been raining for like 3 days straight and there is no end in sight. So all the while being lost we are in a car with the limit of people of course, and it is raining in the car (we have to have the windows open becuase for some reason Indians don't like air conditioning). It has been really good though and I don't want it to sound like I am complaining becuase I am not. I really love it here and am having the time of my life. It is just the Lord stretching me in all my comforts. But I do have a bed to come home to everyday so that is a blessing from God.
Being in India, God has really shown me my heart for Mexico and all of Central America. He has been showing me that it won't be to long until I will return there and continue with the ministry that He started in me. Yesterday we went to an orphange, and it made me really excited becuase that is what I want to do one day is start an orphange in Mexico. God has also been showing me that I really do have a heart for children. I love kids and can not get enough of them. It is a good thing because there are kids everywhere. And a lot of them are searching for love, and are very easy to love. There are even 3 kids where we are staying. We are staying at YWAM Chennai the School of Evangelism base. There are some staff families that have children. And there are really cute. The oldest is 3 and she has a little brother who will be one on the 31st. And there is also about 9 months old.
What else has God been teaching me? Well that I can easily get frustrated and I need to work on that. Especially when it comes to communication. Not only with people on my team but with people back home. That is why I love the internet because it is so easy to communicate with people. I can talk to Melissa via skype and it costs nothing!!! Free!! Now who doesn't like the sounds of that. So if you could please be praying that I will work through my frustrations and be able to lay them down to the Lord. Because He has taken away it before but for some reason I keep picking it back up.

To be continued...
