I’m so excited for what the Lord is doing in my life. I wake
up every morning and can’t believe the Lord has brought me to this amazing
place. It is crazy to think back about how He led me here and how incredible it
is to have it be real. I was reading about The Lord being our Shepherd the other day and walked outside to see sheep on our lawn! It's awesome to see the word come to life.
Last Friday I started discipling a lady from our church. She
is so beautiful and I love that I get to meet with her. She has such a desire
to seek the Lord and to have a real relationship with the Lord and just doesn’t
know how to do it. We just started talking about the Lord and started going
through the book of Mark together. She wants to be able to teach her kids about
the Lord, so we started with Mark so she could teach her kids what we talk
about. We have only me once but I am excited for our future meetings.
I also got to go to a Rugby game last Friday. The game was really fun to go to but our team lost really bad. After the Rugby game we went to a bonfire that someone was having at their house. It was huge but didn't last long. about 20 minutes after it started a fireman showed up and made us put it out. It was fun while it lasted.
Yesterday I spent half the day with a couple of guys from
the church sitting on a street corner singing worship music. I was walking down
the street and saw them and they invited me to join them. They were raising
money for a Tonga mission’s trip that they are leaving on this Sunday. It was
really fun to sing with them and talk to people that came by. Please keep the
Tonga team in prayer. They will be there for 2 weeks building a house for a
family.
I am so blessed the last 2 weeks to be able to Google+
hangout with my family. This last Sunday (well my Monday) cracked me up. My
sister had me on her I phone while my cousin Cameron got my cousin Zach (who is
at school in Santa Barbara) on his I phone. It was somewhat chaotic but it was
fun to see everyone and talk.
Yesterday I moved from the house I was at to house sit/kid
sit for the pastor and his wife while they go to Queenstown for a few days. I
am glad they are able to get away and enjoy each other. They told me that they
have not gotten away just the two of them for 15 years. I am praying there trip
is relaxing and enjoyable without too much worry. I am having a great time with
their kids. I am watching them play with homemade play dough right nowJ every night after
dinner they do family devotions so we are going through 1 Thessalonians this
week. I can’t wait to hear what they say about the book.
Now I am just preparing for the term to start. I have to
plan a few different bible studies for different groups. As well as discipling
and other stuff I will be doing. I’m excited to see what the Lord does and what
things He has me involved in.
Please keep praying for Him to provide somewhere for me to
live. He has been teaching me to wait on Him and not worry. (Be anxious for
nothing) I know that He is going to open the door somewhere it’s just in His
timing which is never late but sometimes right up to the minute J
His timing is always perfect even if it's not what we think it should be. Love you! -mom
