ARISE AND SHINE IS THE THEM OF ISAIAH 60:1
(not arise and be mediocre.) Lord, take my hands and help me to make something beautiful! (not mediocre) That´s one of my prayers, The other one is Lord, forgive me, I am disgusting! I feel God wants these kids to be blessed, not just mediocre (which in Nicaragua can be interpreted as a life of […]
Teach our Children
Teach our children well has been our theme this week I have been kind of frustrated about the fact that this is the fourth generation I have seen come and go in Nicaragua with little or no change. The apathy and fatalism of the parents is mind boggling. In the Bible Jesus talks about the […]
God is COMPLETELY TRUSTWORTHY!
Just when I thought I couldn´t take another step, David and Beatrice (the two readable email addresses, [email protected] and [email protected] came aboard to help us with the 501C3 paperwork and to organize. Both are highly organized. Both are workers, not “suggesters”, have enough of those already. David´s specialty is marketing and social networking, Beatrice is […]

The Nature of God
God a lot of times helps us through our friends. We ask God to help us, our friends offer to help, but we ignore our friend’s help, thinking it isn’t spiritual enough. God is a lot less spiritual than we are, I think. On a spiritual note, we are bringing food to the dump to […]
