Today, I'm experiencing a few twinges of worry about the trip. Questions like, "Will we be safe?" "Will I be robbed?" "Will I get sick?" "How much 'culture shock' will I experience?" are cropping up. I will pray over these during my time of devotions before bedtime tonight. I'm also reminded of a quote a friend recently shared, "Don't tell God how big your 'mountains' are. Tell the 'mountains' how big your God is!!"
A couple of Honduran facts related to "5."
1. The flag has five blue stars. These stars represent the member states of the former Federal Republic of Central America--Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.
2. Honduras' agriculture-based economy is sometimes referred to as a "dessert economy" with its five major products being pineapple, bananas, coffee, melons, and sugar.*
