Two (I’m not sure which two) rocks in this pile are responsible for an injury that’s still giving me trouble.
The FIRST ROCK…
The FIRST WORKDAY…
I got injured!
**is anyone surprised?!?!***
While most people were still getting on their work gloves, I decided to get to work. A teammate and I picked up a rock that was about 100 lbs and started moving it.
I began to lose my balance…so I stepped back to catch myself with my left foot.
That didn’t go as planned!!
Instead of catching myself, I stepped back onto another rock….tripped and fell….landing on the rock!
The momentum of the rock we were carrying (remember….100 lbs.!!!) fell on top of my leg that was already laying on top of the rock I tripped over!
Make sense???
So basically it sandwiched my leg between the two rocks!
A couple of hours later, we were finished with that project…
Then it dawned on me that I would ACTUALLY have to walk…or somehow get around on this *very swollen/painful* leg for the remainder of my time in Haiti.
GOD PROVIDED!!!
(were you surprised?!?!…I wasn’t! He’s pretty good like that!)
One of our guys had some crutches just laying around the house! THANKYOUJESUS!!!
So this is how I hobbled around Haiti!
About 5 minutes into walking on these crutches…the wooden one gave me a blister!
Once again….is anyone surprised?!?! It only makes sense that it would happen this way when I’m the one involved! I can’t seem to make any trip uneventful!
So there you have it…
the story…
ROCK 1!
Wanna know what God showed *is currently showing* me through it?!?! Part 2 coming soon!
