Lead by God

As we are slowing being further submersed in this culture, our own is fading for the time being, and as this is happening, we are beginning to miss certain things: particularly certain foods.  Just this weekend several of us were talking about foods that sounded so satisfying; the main theme voiced by various persons was Mexican! Mmmm! Burritos! Guacamole! Salsa! Chips! Thinking about it even led to the extreme of missing home, cravings, and grumpiness to a degree.  Today, for lunch, we were greeted by the amazing site of sautéed onions, peppers, grilled chicken and beef, cheese and tortillas for burritos sided by the furnishings of guacamole, salsa and chips! I thought, "Aw! How sweet! The cooks made what we were talking about!" But it was far beyond that. The cooks did not hear the conversations we had over the weekend because they only come in during the week. Coincidence then? I think not - later our director told me that Raquel, the cook, says she cooks according to what she is "led by God" to make. Wow. I was awestruck at how amazing our God is that He cares even about the little things in our lives! What an awesome God we have!
