In three days, the Bible has become more of a reality to me than I ever thought possible
 
 
 

DAY ONE ::: evangelism

I have become a representation to simple Kenyan village peoples. They will very likely never again see a white mzungu American nor will more than 50 people ever know their names or who they are. I have become a voice, I have become a symbol – that of Christ, to such a unique audience. I can’t take this thing lightly.

The love of Christ compels us. We don’t live for ourselves anymore, but for Christ. We become His spokesmen to the world, His ambassadors. Therefor, I implore you, be about His business. Be reconciled with God. Don’t live for your own selfish ways anymore. Get into the world and make a difference for Christ. It will change your life forever.

  
 

DAY TWO ::: visiting a school and evangelism

The school came about from over population in the nearby school and the determination of a pastor to start a school with quality education out of his church. As they presented their classes, we were told of a family of orphans there at the school. They brought them forward and told us of how they have excelled beyond all the other students. The school is still being built and developed, bricks lie on the ground taking up a third of the main school/sanctuary room, hanging fabric divided the room into 3 classrooms. I was able to share with them the importance of education, how we’ve been traveling the world and learning is the same everywhere. Education is so key to really surviving in the world.

We set out for evangelism. Our first stop, a house with three widows. There was an obvious lack of joy in that room. One of the women prayed for salvation. We rejoiced with her.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
DAY THREE ::: hospital visits 

We went to a small hospital to pray for people. We heard earlier in the morning that the girl without any control over her muscles, who couldn’t walk and was told she didn’t have anything wrong with her whom we prayed for at the beginning of the month when we visited the hospital, she was healed. We moved from room to room, some were sick with Malaria, there was Typhoid and other illness. Some just gave birth or were about to, some welcome prayer while others refuse it. We prayed for healing, that God would use these people, that they would see God.
 
 
THE BIBLE IS ALIVE
the stuff written inside is no joke. It’s relevant. It’s racy. It’s powerful. It’s comforting. It’s real. It’s truth.
Anywhere you go, anywhere you are.

Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit
orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from
the world -James 1:27
 

I read this over a year ago and I thought, okay, where do I find these
widows and orphans?

 
In only just these past three days, I’ve prayed with widows and orphans –
seen explosive joy and utter lack of it. I’ve prayed for the sick, seen God heal. My eyes are open and God is on
the move.
God want’s us to be His voice to the nations, to our communities, to our families.
I cannot believe that God entrusts me with this much; to be
His voice, bring His message. Me. This is just insane.
