As my semester is coming to an end we are beginning to clean up and say our goodbyes to the relationships that we have built while here. Spiritually, physically, and financially I need closure – Physically I am saying my goodbyes, Spiritually I am praying for Gods guidance and for discernment in this season of my life while I have been out on the mission field, Financially I reach out to my friends and family to help with the remaining balance of $3,137 dollars that is needed in my account with Adventures in Missions, the non-profit organization that I am here with. The money that I have raised has gone towards the food I eat everyday, my housing, transportation, and ministry supplies. I have been here without all the money because but I have to raise the rest so that the team account will not be in the negative with the money that was used during the time that I have been here in Africa. I thank you guys for supporting me, so that I can live over here and go out to the high schools and share with young swazis about God and so that i can go out and do ministry in the rural with the people far away with barely anything to their name. All the money that I raise goes towards everything that I do while I am here in Swaziland, Africa.
So many times people get so excited that you are going to a place where there are orphans and that you are doing such a good thing for the people over there. Thats true to some extent, But if you come over to a place that is the unfamiliar to you, you are in for something different than just the joy you have when you are holding a little child. I say this to you because when I first arrived here in Africa my mind-set was completely different from what it is now. I have experience the life here and seen so many things that i would have never known if I didn’t say YES to GOD to Him calling me to the UNKNOWN. God has changed me into the person that He has called me to be and I am very thankful for this experience I have had here in Swaziland where God has used not just me but my team as well for the GLORY of HIS NAME. I appreciate you all who care and read my blogs and have continued to pray for me in good times and in bad. The last 2 weeks have been filled with just reading the word and soaking in God’s presence . I believe in God for mighty things, signs, and wonders to happen all over the world.
I am coming home to the familiar and to people that I know but that do not know me like they did before I left, all because of great change that has happened since arriving here, I want to say the same for you too as well, I hope that God has rocked your world over there since I have been gone and I can’t wait to hear stories and see the faces that I know. I no longer want to live for the world and the reason I say this to you all because I will need accountability and for the 200 or so people who receive my blogs that is a lot of people that can see for themselves that I am proclaiming it out in boldness.
Friends and family, I pray that He would speak to you all. We are the body of Christ with many different parts, some are the hands and others the feet. We need each member of the body to play their part in order to continue in Unity and to do the things God calls us to.
I love you all and will see you all very soon.
1 John 5:14-15:
14This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. 15And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.
