If you think I did not understand Portugese this week, then you are probably right; but if you think God was not here with us this week, then you are completly wrong. The first couple of days it was near impossible to fathom that I was in Brazil (or Brasil if you are a native). But immediately after taking a sip of the coffee, it hits you. The cultures between the two countries are amazingly different; yet God's love, their love for God, and their convictions are exactly the same, despite the distance between the two countries. For example, Brazilians eat healthier food, where as Americans eat very artificial things. Another thing I have noticed is that Brazilians are not the most cautious people. But yet when they make the decision to find God in their life, their is no caution, just a full fledged heart to serve God. In my eyes, an army of Brazilian disciples can and will conquer and change their homes, towns, state, continent, and the world. That is why Swamp was brought to Brazil.
Also, shoutout to my co-counselor, Fillipe. Even though our age difference could have stopped us, our love and convictions overcame any challenges we had counseling Boys 2. I thank you and I am extremely grateful to call you my brother in Christ. I love you brother!
