Let's EAT

Mark 7:14-15
Again Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen to me, everyone, and understand this. Nothing outside a man can make him ‘unclean’ by going into him. Rather, it is what comes out of a man that makes him ‘unclean’.


The food has been great. Breakfast is a meal fit for royalty.
Scrambled eggs with green peppers and ham, bananas, peanut butter, avocado, mango, pineapple, melon, bread, fresh squeezed juice and coffee. YUMMmmmmmm
Every morning we had a different juice, mango, watermelon, pineapple. Some I don’t even know what kind of fruit is was.
Galatians 5:22-26
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let is not become conceited, provoking and envying others.
Every day for lunch we had a sandwich, some kind of bread that looked like a toasted sub with ham, cheese, ketchup, and onion. Sandwiches on the first day were different and new but as the week went on they were no longer different and new.
Mark 14:38
“Watch and pray so that you will not fall onto temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

Dinner was amazing, fried chicken, lamb, rice and beans, fried plantain, avocados, mango, pineapple, red beets and French fries. The fist night the little guy came out with this little Tupperware container that had a mix of sliced little red onions and hot orange and green peppers. The smile of delight on the guy’s face was priceless when he said try this. I had to try it to get the whole Haiti experience and it was GOOOOOD and hot. I don’t think he expected us to like it, but he made it for us every night and every night we cleaned the bowl.


Luke 18:13-14
“But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God have mercy on me, a sinner’, I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
