I'm going to be honest with you. I was really resistent to you when I got here. I have a huge heart for Honduras... and well, basically you aren't Honduras. I didn't want to fall in love with you. But, now that I'm leaving and saying goodbye after goodbye. I have a special place in my heart for you as well.
Your people are the most gracious, young and old alike. Their smiles make me smile, just thinking about them. Your landscape is beautiful and I will miss waking up to your mountains every morning. The memories I have here will always be with me.
I thank God for bringing me here, Guatemala.
Your struggles are endless, and I thank you for sharing them with me, so openly. Thank you for letting me in to your homes and being vulnerable with your lives. Thank you for changing me, Guatemala. Thank you for giving me the inspiration and courage to live out my faith in the way that I know I have been called to.
Guatemala, I will miss you and I will be praying for you.
Hasta Pronto, Guatemala, Hasta Pronto.
