Rick. I am 51 years old. This will be my second mission trip to Nicaragua. Last year on about the third day of the trip, as we were on the bus headed out to our construction site, I was overwhelmed by emotion. The thought that there was so much need and so little time and so little money just broke my heart. I spent the whole day all teary eyed. (Good thing I was wearing my sunglasses)
This morning, before I got out of bed, I was thinking again of how much there was to do and how little time we had, and then it hit me......"You don't have enough faith", Jesus told them. "I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it would move. Nothing would be impossible" (NLT Matthew 17:20)
He didn't say the mountain will move today, or tomorrow. Only that it would move. That nothing would be impossible if you had faith. Silly me. Let's go build a house!
