ahhh.... what a day... bitter sweet.
It is such a burden on my heart not to be able to do more for the people that we see...
Only equipped with so many supplies and resources leaves me feeling hopeless and useless to give the people of the Amazon what they really need.
One 91 year old lady had cataracts, could barely see, had wheezing in her lungs, and was dizzy all the time with headaches around her eyes... what could I do besides give her pain medication... not much. It broke my heart. It was also hard that I could not even express to her my sympathy. The communication barrier is harder at times to deal with than at others.
Oh well.
God is in control... I am not the only one able to give hope to these people... I pray that the Lord will use my interaction with them in a way that I can not even comprehend. I trust that He will provide the hope that these people so desperately need.
p. s. The Amazon river and its tributaries are AMAZING. So much fun!!!
