If you look on Google you can see where the median income for 56% of the people in Guatemala is below the national poverty rate. With the cost everything rising I do not know how they survive. 21% is known as severe poverty with an income of $4 per day.

Dottie went to church Sunday for the first time in a month. It was a blessing to have her there as I shared the Word. She praises silently but lifts her hands to the Lord as long as we are singing.

God´s forgiveness is a gift that people cannot earn. Jesus paid the price for human sin on the cross. The Bible teaches that God removes and forgets confessed sin, casting them as far as the east is from the west. Receiving this forgiveness calls for an honest confession of wrongdoing and a turn toward God.
