If God let me come on this trip for only one reason it would be this- to humble me.  Everyday I am put into situations that are out of my comfort zone.  I don´t want to sound like I´m complaining, but quite plainly I can not hear, understand or speak Spanish for the life of me.  Quite literately I would say. It is humbling to speak Spanish because my accent is very bad.  So every time I speak I am making myself vulnerable.  I´ve gotten to the point where I don´t want to speak at all for fear that they will make fun of me!  It is tough.  Thursday afternoon the Ruanos told me that I had to choose a sport to do because the kids go twice a week.  I chose soccer training with Rossanita and Bryan.  I didn´t have any soccer shoes but I fit a pair of Bryan`s shoes perfectly.  The whole soccer thing was humbling for me because here I am, obviously a gringo, trying to play soccer but getting run over by ten year old girls.  I just keep thinking that even though this is really tough for me to go through, if I rely on Christ instead of myself this will make me stronger.  It is not a pleasant process, that´s for sure.  Prayers would be appreciated! Pray that I can keep the right perspective ( the big picture) and glorify God in all that I do.  When I take my eyes off of Christ I fall and I fall hard.  Shout out to all of my P-ville friends!  I miss you all and I´m glad that the IATETHEM event went well!  The link takes you to the website and explains it all.  And here is another link for the time-lapse video of the event. I was just reading Jeremiah the other day (I sort of stumbled upon it) and that was before I remembered that IATETHEM came from Jeremiah!  Jeremiah 15:16 ``Your words were found and I ate them, And Your words became for me a joy and the delight of my heart; For I have been called by Your name,O Lord God of hosts.``
