How Time Flies

So, here I am, sitting on my bed (with a hurt foot from falling down a flight of stairs...) realizing that we leave in 11 days. It is such a bitter sweet thing because Christ has done SO much while we have been here! I look back and realize, just how much he has ministered to me…and worked through me in ways I NEVER thought imaginable.

There was a period of about 2 and a half weeks where I was having a very hard time here and felt very attacked by the enemy. I felt useless, lazy, and just simply not cut out to do the work of Christ. Of course…I look back now and can see that isn’t true. The cool thing is…this allowed me to become SO desperate for God to do the work, that now, I can’t quit thanking and praising him. About two weeks ago, I woke up in a prayer mood. This is a rare thing when I just wake up and feel like praying for 6 straight hours…but I had a lot on my mind. Friends who were hurting…half way around the world, questions about the present and the future, questions about who I am and who God made me to be…and many other things. So, God woke me up and I was able to just focus on him. Which was a gift!

Not two days later, he began to work tons of miracles! Supernatural conversations, divine encounters, things that I couldn’t have done. I love this. Because I am so humbled and I know that it just took me, surrendering my plans to Christ, for His Glory to be made here in Cambodia!

So, this week is a slower week and I am praying for more encounters, more supernatural conversations. More things that happen that only scream CHRIST. I am realizing that no matter where we end up, I should be just as desperate for God to move. For God to facilitate things. I look at our time here, and just smile. We are truly blessed to be a part of what God is doing, and if you are reading this, you have been a part of it too. I hope you know, that you are doing the same thing in Fort Worth/Copperas Cove/ Baltimore…as we are doing in Cambodia. Location doesn’t matter. Love matters! So I pray that we can encourage each other throughout this next season of life…to live this stuff out every single day. For me, it sometimes seems harder to be Christ, at home. To be busy and working and faced with day to day things…and keep my eyes focused on the truth!

So, this adventure does not stop when we arrive in Fort Worth, 11 days from now. Nope…it just continues in another season! May we live it well!

Love you!
