Day 6-Justin's Justice

Hey I'm Justin. 

We're having a blast on our sixth day of our mission trip. Something that really stuck out from Pastor Jason's message was about "Saving a Life." He shared that in order to do so, we have 4 difficulties that we would have to overcome. The one that stood out to me was that, you would have to go through Discomfort. 

    Honestly, we have gone through several discomforts. As a church, a lot of us have been bitten by bugs many times. Personally, I've had by far the worst bug bites in both numbers and size. I've got plenty of kisses from the mosquitos all over my body. 

Also, today we had to overcome extreme heat, sore knees and sitting on a hot roof.  In other words, some of us had "hot buns" while we replaced a roof for a family. In general, we had to go through a big language barrier in our outreaches. 

     However, it is the result that matters. Knowing we gave a needy family a new roof feels awesome. In each of our outreaches, the happiness of the people we impacted which puts a smile on our faces. 

Lastly, even if we speak two different languages, we have something in common. We are all beautifully created and no matter our living situations, God has a purpose for each one of us.
