A cup of coffee and milk in it. I have realized that milk softens the
very strong black coffee that I so much crave on a daily basis.
I do have other responsibilities I ought to be taking care of right at
this moment. But, typing calls my name and I can not help it but
transmit my thoughts using a second language it whichever form it
comes.
Trying to put my thoughts in order. Wish me luck. Or like Americans
say "More power to you" or "Good luck with that"
Well, let me point out today's most important events.
I learned, once again, so I guess that is just a reminder and not
something that I actually learned. That God does things His way.
Once I got to Huaycan the Saturday 29. I was not totally aware of the
time. I had arrived early enough to go to Zone S Teenagers meeting.
Being there again felt to awfully, terribly , selfishly different, weird.
The need that zone S presents is totally intense. I think, that one of
the reason my brain has a shock is as I am maturing and getting old in
this life. I see two complete realities. Miraflores-San Isidro and
Zone S Huaycan.
Is Zone S considered a place under extreme poverty standards.
If living in one house 20 m2 with three kids and two parents. Having
just gotten running water. And living on 9 soles a day, that is what 3
dollars a day, is not extreme poverty, at least is very poor.
But Huaycan Zone S is just so unique. I do not think my current
English level would allow me to make justice when describing what it
is like.
Yes, I have heard of worse places. But, I am living this place. And,
sadly to say, I live it only on the weekends.
I had prepared a small verse-by-verse message/Bible Study based on
Matthew 1. I had made my slides and reviewed it before taking off. It
was not the right time for Salomon to get up there and do that just
yet.
But one curious event took place. At Zone S, I was asked to share a
little bit. I thought of myself, I might one Bible verse to share. But
I felt totally convicted to share John. Such a sweet book that I have
been listening off my MP3 player. I have listening to it again and
again. I am not sick of yet. How could anyone get rid one of the
sweetest books of the Bible.
We read and studied verse by verse, John 1:1-5. We went through each
Bible verse little by little. Actually, we went through it by
sentences. We stopped at every single comma or period to analize the
verse. I think it did go pretty well since the kids were actually
responding the questions and following along the reading.
I felt very good about that. Praise God.
The darkness did not overcome the light.
Yes indeed. We are free in His light.
Glup, glup, glup. Warm coffee-milk feels so good going down my throat.
Tasteful.
There are still those time when my belly feels so empty. And all it
wants is to praise Jesus and go after that which He has called me to
be. I still struggle with in-maturity. Complete in-maturity.
I still make very many mistakes on a daily basis. I do have the sense
in life where we are called not to focus on all that which belongs not
to God but on the new creature that we are as his Children.
God is indeed the only one.
It does seem like typing skills have gotten a little bit better. Will
this just be a training season for what is to come. I want to get out
and go back to what I think I was called. Will even be that the Lord
can put in you desires for only short periods of time.
Why would He do that?
Why would He not just called to one thing for the rest of your life?
Does He put desires in your Hearts at all?
I need to go to bed. Maybe none of this made any sense. But if it did.
Know that I am pretty sure I was honest.
Later alligator.
