LAST FEW DAYS
This part of the journey is coming to a close. And Im falling in love with this place, doesn’t mean Im not happy to leave, but I asked God to really soften my heart for this country and to see the beauty and how he loves it and he has. Well at least a lot more than I was to begin with. Even in the little things like telling a woman on the bus that God loves her was awesome. Seeing the greatness of God explode in my world, how he loves us to abandon ourself in his arms. And how abandonment can be amazing when you know your so safe with Him.
I’ve learnt so many things and am still learning so many things. Its made me think about ‘missions’ what they should look like- to be honest I don’t think I really enjoy that term missions anyway. I prefer being. Being with God. Although I knew this before, God just really kept reminding me, that missions is where ever we are. At home, overseas, at work, at a café. That our love for him should over flow… just in our being.
Let everything we do be done for a purpose.
THE THINGS MY EYES DID SEE
Broken women pleading for a way out of the lives they exist in. Pleading to do more than just exist.
Kids that are so happy but who are being born into a trap, a cycle, that just keeps churning round and round till someone says STOP.
I’ve seen churches cry as they realize that there are truths about their own country they never knew. People stirred and eager for action.
Tourists that only came for the beauty of the country, seeing, hearing ,tasting God.
Seeking.
Team mates, change, grow, stretch break- me-myself the same.
GOING GOING…STILL
Hmmmm God is taking me on an adventure for sure………For a few years now God has been speaking to me…I’d be walking down the street and something would shiver over me, and excitement, and incredible overwhelming creativity, that I never knew how to express or what to do with. I recognize now that Gods whisper was in that. He was telling me, hold on, theres more, Ive got something crazy for you.
He knows that’s what I need. Even when sometimes it scares me.
Its the beginning of something crazy wonderful an adventure of God and I.
Yep we love each other heaps.
