| I made it! |
 Well, my week is officially done tonight... it was a looong week, but so wonderful for many reasons. First of all, I am feeling more mental energy than i have in months. Which doesn't make much sense because we've basically been working hard from 8:30am till after 10 at night. But, THE LORD HAS TRULY GIVEN ME MY STRENGTH!
I don't know how to explain this well, but this group of young people we had this week are so amazing... they are kids from all over the States and Canada, who came on this 'mission trip' to serve. Little did they know that the first 4 days of their 10 day work trip, is purely just for them... it is full of teaching - on prayer, worship, and life. It is challenging for them and refreshing...and I tell you these kids have CHANGED since monday night. God has SPOKEN to many of them for the very first time... they have allowed themselves to be challenged in how they live thier lives, and have layed down shame, fear, anger, and many things that have been holding them back. They have gotten a new look at what Jesus did for THEM on the cross...they've gotten a chance to sit alone before God and wait in expectation for Him to speak... they have allowed Him to speak truth over them, and bring out passion. Some have even had COUNTRIES put on their hearts!! I can't beleive I get to do this for a living! |
