Pray Without Ceasing

 
We arrive in Monjares to a warm welcome of Pastor David and church congregation.  They were busily at work cleaning and organizing the facilities for the use of the medical clinic.  We all gathered under a blue tarp which provided a cool breeze.  Mike introduced Pastor David to the medical team and allowed Katie, team leader to introduce her team. We also introduced our amazing Dr. Brenda and our four translators for the week.  God is so good and without our Honduran staff we could not provide the needs we provide on a weekly basis.  Team member Betty shared how Maida worked tirelessly and going from one station to another without skipping a beat.  Maida never complained or seemed exhausted as she worked hard at meeting the needs of everyone who called her name.  Thank you Maida for your endless service for Jesus and with always shining a beautiful smile.
Pastor David introduced his congregation and thank God first for providing the community with a medical clinic for three days.  What a beautiful start to a beautiful week.  At this time Mike asked Pastor David to open in prayer and each day as the team arrived at their location they opened in prayer and gave their day to God.  Kathleen shared during God moments one evening that God is our one and only great physician.  We are just his helpers.  God is in control of all situations. 
During the second night of devotionals Mark shared out of Proverbs 3:5-6 how God is in control of all things even when we try to do it for HIM.  We need to put on Jesus daily and not ourselves.  We need to pray and be more intentional with our life for Jesus only.
