“There is a time for everything…”
…says Eccl.3:1.
Well, yesterday as I was laying in bad taking advantage of the looong extra houres I had with the Lord because of having a stomach bug, I was just smiling as I thought about this verse.
When I heared missionaries talking before about their experiences in the different countires they have been, every single one of them mentioned of some kind of sickness, diseas they got. Hm, I thought I have not yet been sick since I am here in Mexico, how cool that is. Though I kinda wanted to have that experience to be quite honest with you :0)
Then on Saturday night at 1:20 (AM) I think the Lord thought: ” Okey Timi, this is the time for that wish to become true:0) ” Oh, if I would just know what I was wishing for…severe diarreah ( sorry I do not mean to gross you out) bad headache, on and on feelings of vomiting, no balance at all. Praise God, today I feel completly well, but oh that Sunday!!!!!:-)
As it turned out yesterday, one of the girls from my team got some parazytes and an infection in her intestines, then another girl as well as myself got hit by it:0) Yuyks!
We are all feeling better now thankfully. Just thought to share with you my experience of having the sickest day of my life 2 days ago. So, better be prepared if you are planning on ministering in a different country! :0)
But I really praised God for the rest He gave me through this time, as well as for the extra time I could have with Him, and the fellowship with Tamara and Jenny ( the two other sick girls).
P.S. By the way, the picture has nothing to do with the story, I just love sunsets:0) ( this pic was taken in South Padre Island in Texas)
