Mexico, Day Dos

God continues to bless us here on our second day in Mexico. Today I am reminded of God's Fatherly love through twenty or so children we were able to speak with, something that's never been done before just for the kids. Ed, Lance, and Dennis spoke of God's love through our interpreters, Frank and Obett. Kelly and I blew up balloons to make hats for them (Kelly creates great ballon hats). I now know why the ballon guy at Pappasito's uses an air pump! The smiles on each face will always be etched in my mind. No matter where I have been, children are still the same--they want attention and love. It reminds me of God's unconditional love for all of us. I am floored every time I think of how much I love my family, and yet God's love for all of us is so much more. It is beyond my compehension. I also witnessed the longing and search for hope in a young man named Heriberto. He does nothing but walk around, clearly bored and looking for a place to belong. Every where you turn he's there just hanging out. Lance and Frank shared the gospel with him. We gave him a spanish Bible and encouraged him to read it, particularly the book of Mark. We expect him to attend services on Sunday, please pray that God will speak to him so that he may know there is hope through salvation in Christ. More to come. By the way, Ed wanted everyone to know that he cashed in "eleventy thousand" dollars in our poker game tonight. He's a closet card shark.
