  Freedom is a choice. We can choose to walk in freedom or stay captive within the lies of the enemy. Passport training camp is a place where God revealed to me some things that I needed to surrender to Him and some lies that had to chained me down. From the first moment I stepped off of the plane in Atlanta I was overcome by a title wave of fear and insecurity. I began to question and doubt myself and my choice to go on this trip to Honduras. Satan struck hard at me with lies about being unqualified, weak, and alone. Shortly into training camp I came very close to giving in and...

Yesterday my team went into Talanga, Honduras to run errands with our host. She had a list of things that had to be done. But this didn’t stop her from talking to everyone. She didn’t just ask “Hey, how are you?” and then not care about the response. She truly wanted to know how they were. We prayed for an abuela (grandma) in the market who had been having leg pain for over a month. People were watching, and they were able to see that something was different about us. She intentionally buys one thing from different stands so that she able to get to know different...

This week, our team visited some local high schools in honor of One Nation One Day. Seeing as how Honduras is referred to as “the fatherless nation" and my team knew stories of how I could relate, I felt led to share the testimony of how God has shown Himself to be my father and what it means to be His daughter. I was super nervous at the idea of talking in front of a classroom full of Honduran teens, let alone doing it twice. In Spanish. So I got Kalynn (a fluent teammate) to translate for me the first time, but something felt off. I felt like a robot...

God chose this past week to really work on my heart. We had been visiting different ministries for a few days, and then the trip to Roatan was 14 hours. I was exhausted. This week was my breaking point. The weight of everything we had seen and done throughout the past 5 weeks just came crashing in on me. I was all of a sudden just spent. Physically, emotionally, spiritually, God used this week of travel to show me just how much I need him.  We always talk about needing The Lord. "God, give me strength for this or that" or "Lord, just get me through this", as if...

  "She is clothed with strength and dignity, she laughs without fear of the future. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue… Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears The Lord is to be praised." Proverbs 31:25-26, 30   I have never been one to call myself graceful. I am probably the opposite of graceful, especially physically. I can't catch a frisbe or hop a fence, and I certainly am lacking in typical dance skills. I sound like a mouse on the phone yet it is common for me to make noises like a pregnant...
