Our plan - His plan

So sorry I couldn't write last night -- way too tired!

Our plan - His plan! Our verse we shared earlier this week was an example of our day yesterday. We plan our course, He directs our steps. The schedule allowed for some time to help at the church "Family Festival". Let me share briefly what different team members did to 'help'. None of these were in our plan but they were all part of His plan. Some TEAM members participated by:

peeling potatoes, visiting a prisoner, assisting in the dental office, delivering a stove, making picarones (fried donuts) helping in the eye clinic, taste testing typical Peruvian food including cebichi, praying for a girl in a wheelchair and others at the church, stacking chairs, unstacking chairs, setting up tables, carrying meals from one floor to another and serving them, holding a roof top prayer meeting, team tagging while walking from the hotel to the church.

How did this fit into the plan? The TEAM continued to worship the Lord through their service to Him and others. Sure they had a plan to attend the morning church service, to help when called upon, and to share the drama and testimonies. But when we are totally available, we find our steps are directed by the Lord!

Last night street dramas were in two separate locations. We have yet to hear all the reports of what God did during that time and will blog them later today. Continue to pray for the TEAM. As would be expected, the pace is fun and furious, but it can cause us to fall into areas that we need to avoid - like shortness with one another, losing focus, tiredness, or other unkind attitudes and actions. We can honestly say the TEAMs are doing GREAT! God is with them. Just continue to pray for them!
