I apologize that I've not been able to get any pictures up but Jason's computer is having issues right now. So I will try to get some up as soon as I can but I did want to give you a quick update on how things are going here.
Things have been going great. I have adjusted well. We've spent the last two days going around Lima and seeing the city and the beach and I've started to feel more at home here. Today, I received a letter in the mail for $300 from a Peruvian woman that my mother works with and her brother who lives in Lima. I wanted them to know that money will strictly be used for the people of Chincha. I praise God again for His awesome provision because I already had $200 more than I needed (see my first blog)! God never ceases to amaze me! Completely trusting God and having blind faith that He is going to provide all your needs when you seem to need so much is very hard but I'm seeing now how rewarding and amazing it is. I never want to slide back into the weak faith that I have. Nick Jones is a very weak and worthless person alone but in God's hands, He promises to use the weak things of this world to confound the wise. He is definitely using me and I am honored to be placed here by God so that through me He will receive glory among the people of Chincha, Peru, but also among those in the States who read this blog. My most favorite movie clip that demostrates faith is in Idiana Jones and the Last Crusade where he has to leap from the lion's mouth. I like that picture of faith because he did not receive the blessing until he made that first step. Sometimes God doesn't show you anything further than where you are at this very moment but He calls out for you to step into something you don't know. May God bless your life as you trust that very life completely over to Him!
