Blur

7/1/2023

Life flying by can be a blessing and a curse.

A blessing in that the stressful, hard, emotional moments are going by so fast, that you don't always have time to process them.  A curse for the same reason, plus add in that things that take time, seem to take too much time.  

Take for example this cutie in Cantarranas, happy for that bag of corn she is taking home to share with her family (she is in the Milk Project there.)

I had enough time seeing all the pictures from this day of corn, to notice all the kids smiling, laughing.

But I continually don't have the space to think of the impact this corn has, both physical impact on so many families, as well as the emotional and spiritual impact of it being distributed by the churches and Milk Projects.  

Plus...to notice all the new material under her feet as we prepare for groups that will help concrete this area to make for a safer entrance, a proper ditch, etc.

We had three interns, plus Cecilia, in June with us.  They came, they left.  We pray for the impact on their lives through their time here...but with everything else going on, it was definitely a speedy blur I wish would have been a little clearer and slower.  

Speaking of interns, and a blur...this woman is a patient in the clinic that Kimmie and Valerie saw.  Through the process of an eye exam, this woman came to Christ.  

They sent me the picture, we chatted briefly, and life moved on.  

Thinking about the past month today though, of the details that were fussed over (someone has to fuss over them right?) and a bunch of stuff I am not even mentioning in this post, and then to find a few pictures, and recall a few conversations and think about what God is doing in and through this current of blurs...it is a little overwhelming, in a good way, but also the weight of it all. 

Good thing the blur continues (I log off here to fetch the next group) I guess.  Or...I guess?

Either way...might be a while until I am back.  Until then, say a prayer for all of the staff at His Eyes...that somehow through the blur of this current phase of life, we keep the proper focus.
