Today we had a fun zone activity where we made baleadas, which are a type of Honduran food involving wheat tortillas, beans, eggs, cheese, and some other tasty things. It`s kind of like a breakfast taco, but actually shaped like a taco, and with a home-made tortilla that makes it really awesome. They were super tasty. We also had a huge water balloon fight and all got soaking wet.
This week my companion and I have been thinking a lot about faith. There are a few different types of faith, and some of them bring us more blessings and happiness than others. One type is the faith to try. If I have faith that something is good, I`m going to try to do it. But if my faith is only in my own physical abilities and talents, I may give up when I find out that I don`t know how to do it. Faith in ourselves is something that can be defeated. But if I know that God wants something, I can have faith in Him. This is the faith to DO, not just to try. If it`s what God wants, he will make it happen. And if what I want is what He wants, I don`t have to be worried if I go in without knowing how I`m going to make it happen, because I`m just the tool God is using to bring to pass His work, and He will make sure that everything He wants gets done. I`m not perfect, but it`s okay because God is, and he`s using me in the best way possible.
I love you guys!
