Mexico. It’s always amused me how some people pay to go vacation there while others are running away from it! I realize Mexico is a very diverse place and there is a legitimate reason why someone who lives there might want to leave. But for those of us “privileged Americans” (insert sarcasm) who can go enjoy a nice week or two in the warm sun, it is a welcome change during the cold months of a midwest winter!
Or is it?
What would you do if the Federale (i.e. Mexican National Guard) flagged you down at airport security, pulled you into a room, and proceeded to tell you, “you’re going to jail.” I don’t know about you, but I might freak out! How do you know if you really did something wrong or if they’re just trying to squeeze you? Can you trust the Mexican system to be fair?
Today, JR answers these questions from his unfortunate first-hand experience, almost two years ago. While not an experience he would ever want to relive, it’s amazing to hear how he recognizes God was working through a terrible situation to show him the power of prayer.
