Good morning from Costa Rica! We took a walk in our yard yesterday evening and to the front gate and around the front of the camp property. We are amazed at how God has provided amazingly and wonderfully for our family and this ministry!
Thank you for giving to support us as we follow God in building Taller del Maestro camp and Bible training center!
So in our yard right close to the house we have these trees; they are a palm but look closely at the trunk! It has 2-3 inch spikes all around it in intervals, from bottom to top! Even the branches have these spikes on them! It's amazing how God created these trees, they produce fruit called pejibayes. The people boil the fruit it's round, they cut it in half and eat it at coffee time! They have a nutty flavor; James says they taste like dirt!
Praise The Lord every day and take a walk in your yard; God has created amazing things right outside your doorstep!
Though from a distance they appear to have Fuz on these trees, a closer look reveals spikes, when I look at these trees it reminds me to give thanks to God through our Lord Jesus, thorns like these were driven into His skull by cruel oppressors but my sin hurts Him more than any thorns ever could have! Help me Lord to repent and turn quickly to You for cleansing so as not to hurt you more by my rebelion! Thank you Lord Jesus for your love for us!
