“If we don’t jump into that water we’ll die.”
“And once we make it to shore?” Ellie asked. “Then what? We’re back in the jungle again.”
“At least we’ll be away from the men after us.”
“There’s a bounty on my head, Ryan. You don’t think they’ll find us again?”
“I don’t know what other option we have, Ellie.”
She blew out a huff of air. “So what’s your plan?”
“They’re not paying attention to us for the moment, so we jump. Hopefully, they won’t notice right away that we’re gone. Once we get to the shore...we run.”
She looked up at him, her eyes wide with fear, but also the courage he’d noticed before. Emotion washed through him—one he couldn’t quite identify. For the first time since Heather’s death, he felt something that left him wishing they were somewhere else—anywhere else—where he could get to know her better.
He slammed shut the thought. Now was not the time. He needed to stay focused on getting them out of here. Alive.
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
—Isaiah 41:10
Ten years ago, my family and I headed to Brazil for language school, where we spent six months learning Portuguese. While our time was focused on school, I was able to take two short trips. One with my husband to Rio, and a second trip with our three kids to the Amazon. Thankfully, our adventures there were no more dangerous than swimming with the pink dolphins and fishing for piranhas! But it was definitely a time I’ll never forget.
I hope you enjoyed Ryan and Ellie’s story as they fought to survive in this beautiful country. And even more important as they learned that God is the one who upholds us when all hope is lost. May we always remember that He is the one who will give us the strength we need to face whatever lies before us.
Be blessed,
Lisa Harris
To all the wonderful friends I made while living in this beautiful country. You will always be a part of who I am today.
