The Hamlet team worked diligently on Fransico's home in the blistering heat. During the day the sun beat down on them. They welcomed the shade and cold water. We woke up on the last day of construction to what became a huge system that sat on Choluteca for 12 days. It was pouring down rain and tempertures had dropped alot for Choluteca. The team arrived on the job site hoping to put the roof on and the floor in. They arrived to the house full of water. Pastor Chris quoted later how everyone was saying we cannot do this in the rain. How are we going to finish the house with this rain pouring down on us. They looked inside the house and it was full of water. Pastor G very gingerly quoted:"Praise the rain because great victories are only received through great sacrifices." Well that was all it took the men got busy. They literally carried buckets of water out of the house while there were men working on the roof. The women and children watched from inside the church and prayed for no injuries. Pastor G cut his hand on the roofing materials and the ladies bandaged him right up. No problem he said and went right back on the roof to finish the job he came to do. The team worked diligently until the job was done. God is good all the time!!
"For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater, So shall My WORD be that goes forth from MY MOUTH: It shall not return to ME void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it."
Isaiah 55:10-11
