    Easy Out

    May 19 in Honduras ⋅ 🌬 84 °F

    The slow churn.
    Week moving at half speed.

    I cannot not remember, if it has ever happened at all, leaving for a trip in such a relaxed mood.

    We packed through the week. There was no 3 page list of things to do before we left. Nothing left undone. No crisis. No fires to put out.

    A flight not too early. Everyone up on time. Out of the door in a breeze.

    A blessing to begin our trip.

    And what did we do on the flight? We trip planned for next summers wandering of the west.

    The Lay of the "Land"

    May 22 in Honduras ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F

    Anthony's is an island off an Island, off the coast of Honduras. We take a little water taxi (the size of a John Boat) from the key (where our rooms are) to everything else we do.

    This post will feature a few pictures of the area. Then, later we will get into some of the week's fun.Read more

    Why would you do that for me?

    May 24 in Honduras ⋅ ☀️ 84 °F

    His name is Stanley. He is young- I'm not sure of his exact age. He is a husband and a father of 2 young children. He works 7 days a week. He was our Waiter this week at Ankor restaurant. He was there from breakfast at 7am until dinner , over at 9pm. Stanley always had a smile on his face (as did everyone we met). He was always ready to meet our needs. Halfway through the week, Gary told him that we always prayed at our meals and asked him if there was anything we could pray for him about. He looked confused. He didn't understand what Gary was asking. So Gary explained that we would pray for any needs he might have. Health, his children, etc. He thought for a moment and then said "food supplies". After he left the table, we all sat there, staring at each other. It was incredibly humbling. We joined hands to pray, but Gary was too overwhelmed with emotion. So Patty prayed over Stanley for us. A couple minutes later, Stanley returned to our table and asked " Why would you do this for me?" So Gary explained that we are Christians and we know how much God loves us all, even though none of us deserve it. God loves Stanley and his family. We told him that we believe in the power of Prayer. It's hard to understand that he had never heard the message of Jesus. In our tip envelopes at the end of the week, Gary included a letter telling him more about Jesus and salvation. Please pray for Stanley and his family. Pray that his heart is open to salvation and that God provides mightily for his needs!Read more
