John 17:3-4
"Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do."

This morning I was reading Jesus' words above and it hit me that this is our true desire. This is the reason we are going to Guatemala. This is the prayer of our lives: that those who are placed in our lives will know eternal life through the only true God and that we will bring glory to God on earth by completing the work He has given us to do! So on days like yesterday when I feel overwhelmed by the task before us I need to remember that God will equip us and be with us to complete the work He has given us to do!

Our prayer for you is that you too will know the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom He has sent and that you will bring glory to God on earth by completing the work He has given you to do!

May you have a God glorifying day with God's blessings written all over it! (vs)
