My word for today is...

My word for today is curious.


I am quite curious what the air in Guatemala is like. Not the temperature, but the feeling- the spirit of the place.

As we have traveled around the US, I have noticed that each place has its own distinct aura, sort of like how the air at Christmastime is filled with anticipation. For example:


Washington, D.C. - business

Kentucky- down home

New Mexico- ancient and earthy

Texas- American pride

New Orleans- quirky and mischievous


The glimpses of Guatamalan life that I have seen - the close-knit families, the beautiful rainbow weavings- give me hope that the spirit I will feel there is joy.


Psalm 5:11
But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
