Tomorrow we leave the comfort of our condo for travels to the north of Guatemala. Although Boyd and I have been to this region before, traveling can sometimes lead to frustration and the unexpected. Fortunately, our devotional this morning was about "worry" and has reminded us that God even watches over every bird of the sky. We particularly hope he is watching over Taca Airline.
This afternoon when we went to the park for the boys to play soccer and baseball, we saw at least 12 young men playing wheelchair basketball. It was an amazing sight. Most of them had spinal cord injuries but were equipped with "sports" type wheelchairs. The concentration of men with this injury seemed disproportionate to the size of the city, especially because we were only seeing the ones who play w/c basketball on this particular day. We speculated that motorcycle or falling injuries as well as the lack of quality medical care has contributed to thier plight. What a blessing that they were having so much fun.
"Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you." 1 Peter 5:7
