We were all blessed by this humble and quiet little family. The sweet part of this story as Mike and I had shared together is how God knew just the team to put with this family. Danny's team was also quiet and respectful of the culture here as they worked beside their new friends in Cedeno. I would like to introduce to you Pastor Martin, who is a barber by trade, his lovely and extremely reserved wife Kelin, their three well behaved sons, Martin Jr, age 14, Joscan age 7 and Noe age 4. I was there one day and you did not even know the two younger boys were in the existing home behind me until they walked out looked and me simply smiling. They did not run around the project but were very respectful of their surroundings. Meida shared with Kelin how well behaved her three boys were and Kelin shared they are always like this. We are very blessed by them. Martin Jr. worked everyday with his father on their new home. Kelin was busy daily in her kitchen cooking, cleaning and washing clothes. Her kitchen was outside behind the new home going up. The kitchen was well kept and organized as she also prepared a lunch each day for all of the ten Hondurans who were working on the project, this also includes Meida and Tino and her husband and son. God blessed us in so many ways this week by being obedient to making this house a home.
During Kenny's devotional one evening, he made a profound comment, "We most get off of our knees from praying and go out and be obedient to what God has called us to do. Kenny shared how he gets up early to start his day with his Father in Heaven. Those who are reading this today I pray this is how you start your day as well. Just like Kenny, Mike and I enjoy starting our day in the Presence of our Heavenly Father. When this is not a priority in our day and we become doers and not listeners it really shows in how we perform throughout the day for the Kingdom. I pray for each one reading this today please put God first and foremost in your daily life.
