Thoughts

Buenos Dias!!
Today is the Global Day of Prayer. Today at church, the worship team did things a little differently and we sang 3 songs that were each in a different language to really incorporate the global feel. We sang a song from South Africa, a song that was in France and a song that was in Spanish. Each song brought about a different thought.

The South African song make me think of the summer that I was in Zambia. We had actually sang this very song when I was in Zambia two summers ago. This song brought back all those memories and reminded me of all the fun that I had that summer and made me miss all my friends over there. As I sat there singing, " There's no one, there's no one like Jesus, There's no one, There's no one like Him", it made me so thankful for that experience.

The French song made me think of my sister Jenny. She loves the French Language and loves France. She spent part of her last summer in France and is studying it at the Air Force Academy.

The Spanish Song made me think of Bolivia. It made me think of how I am going to need to get use to singing in Spanish, how I need to learn Spanish and how Lord willing I will be in Bolivia in two months.

This was a neat reminder that God is at work in all these countries all over the world and it will be exciting to have been a part of that in Zambia and I am looking forward to being a part of that in Bolivia.
