So it's time to say goodbye to this beautiful country and is gentle, loving people. I've been immersed in doing what's always on His heart...restoring every violation of love. I have watched love in action in so many ways as it took what was wrong and fought to make it right again. I'm filled with faith and hope for the people of Ecuador...people who used to beg for acceptance and are now strong enough to give love. The commitment here has been clear--doing what I could, not what I couldn't...my heart regulating my hands. I've become more alive, more concerned, more sensitive, more reverent, more human, more passionate and more responsible...changed forever. My arms are wide open, outstretched and I'm standing tall in His presence fresh and celebrating!

DeleteBeautiful testimony Lynda! Thank you for your faithfulness to serve, to go, to be His hands and feet, and to share the journey. " restoring every violation. Of love" I'll be thinking about those words for a while.

Thanks so much, Kris. You are an amazing example to me as well...just look at the fabulous young men and women you've raised who are impacting the world...you and Kurt are farmers who have produced and tenderly raised strong, healthy, life producing kids who will turn around and sow life and love as abundantly as their parents! What a picture you all are! I love you!
