Eldoret, Kenya. Best contacts in Africa.
good food. awesome team. cool weather.
Sound amazing? It is! And yet, the second week
here in Kenya has been one of the hardest times for me.
I hit a spiritual low. I felt like God had
abandoned me. I couldn’t feel Him, sense Him,
or hear Him. Not only was I battling spiritually
I was fighting the physical battle as well.
I got sick and had to go to the doctor, which cost me
more then I had.
I wasn’t homesick, but I was ready to be home. I was done
with everything, ministry, my team, our contact, just done.
Then feedback happened, and Danielle asked for each of us to share
where we each were spiritually. I told my team the truth, and since
that night have found freedom. I spent all of today seeking after
God and His voice, and guess what? He answered almost instantely!
My total defeat and surrender of, well, ME, allowed God to come in
and speak to me, and reveal things in my heart to me.
He has challenged me, and uplifted me. God truly gives the best
feedback. haha. 😉
My challenge:
STOP BEING LAZY!!!! If I want spiritual growth, if I want
my team members to get deeper in the word, if I want to see people
healed, then I need to take the initiative. Not just let things happen
how they may. I need to take responsibility for the authority Christ has
given me, and live that out in action daily.
I want to hear those words, “Well done my good and faithful servant”, not you
didn’t quite cut it, you should have done more or tried harder! I want to be the
best daughter I can be to both my heavenly and earthly father.
