Of Paths and Possibilities...

Is it really November the first?? I've probably said it before but the only thing that keeps me on track as far as time goes is that my computer keeps telling me what date it really is. The "seasons" and the weather out here have offered little help in keeping track of time. I'd be waiting for a long time for the first frost, never mind the first snowfall to tell me that yes, winter was coming. Of course, none of you want to be hearing that, but don't worry, I'll be paying my dues as I make the journey back home mid-December.

But the question still remains, what's beyond this aventura Mexicana (Mexican adventure)? A number of possibilties have presented themselves to remain here (or come back here after Christmas) from staying longer with Brenda, to working at an orphanage, or even just teaching English in a school. It seems that the possibilities are often limitless, but what is the path that God wants me to take? And am I willing to go down that path?

These thoughts have been on my mind a lot over the past while and I would greatly appreciate your continued prayers in listening and discerning what God would have me do next. For now though, life is good - it's always good to be in the place where you know God wants you to be. Brenda is coming back in two days and also will a number of groups from Canada and the US (including the CrossCurrent group from WBC...) This morning I picked up a guy from the bus depot who is from MacGregor, MB and will be spending the next 6 weeks or so here at the center on a practicum for his CMU degree. So, life is changing out here but all is well!
