Adios estados unidos!

I leave in about 7 hours for a country that is actually only 2200 miles away from Denver. Yet for some reason no one knows where Nicaragua is, or has any idea that it is the 2nd poorest country in the western hemisphere.

Right now though I am pretty sad to be leaving the richest country in the western hemisphere. I'm not sad to leave it because of all of the things I have here, although I am sure that I will covet the good air conditioning of this country all summer, rather I am sad to leave because once again it means change.

I hope that one of the characteristics of heaven is some sort of constancy. I'm pretty sure that it will be. God is unchanging, his love is unchanging and unending, so a perfect relationship with Him in heaven must have some constancy. I don't want boring. I just want to be able to continue to enjoy the blessings that he gives without having to deal with time and change.

I'll see you all on the other side. -tim
