Day 3

day 3 was monday, 10/20. it was a full work day which meant i was up by 630a, breakfast @ 7a, and on the road by 8a. my devotion was after breakfast & i was nervous but it wasnt so bad. @ the site we met some new workers then we got to work...no sifting but i aligned the rebar for the windows. Lisa couldn't quite get the hang of it @ first(sleep deprivation), but that was okay because she was A LOT of help by cutting the wire i needed to tie the rebar together.

after i did two things for the windows i was feeling a lil discouraged. idk why but it hit me like a bull dozer!! i waas standing on a barrel so i didnt have to bend the rebar & i was sooo scared! i got down after i was done & i was actually crying...then i helped out w.some brick stuff & then did another thing but this time Vincente said i could pull them down (window framing)

we all got done a little late today so we couldn't spend time w. the kids like we had wanted to but we still had the next day. after we got to the compound, we cleaned up & dinner @ 6p then we were able to call home. i called but no answer, they didnt know the number i was calling from (John's cell)

that was okay though...for some reason i didnt wanna call but Scott told me i should...so i did. i know i will see them when i get home so it was all alright. one thing imma do before i leave is go into the prayer tower. its across the road from our place & its literally a tower, its so beautiful. i think tomorrow will be the day! tonight we go to the guys place for prayer...cant wait, last night was REALLY inspirational.

we went to PB's & we shared some things from the day. i was gonna say something but i couldnt because, well idk why. i figured my feeling of discouragement kept me from sharing...i wrote in my journal that it was okay because it wasnt the first time i've kept from sharing something just because i didn't feel right. i tried to justify it...y? idk but for the rest of the night i contemplated the thought of "what if?" what if i would have shared? what if somebody needed to hear what i had to say? what if sharing would have opened my heart? i guess i'll never know

stay tuned for day 4...tomorrow! ;)
