Month four is over. Debrief is ending. I’ve heard month four debrief is a doozy…and it did not disappoint. Sometimes I think it should be call degrief. There’s so much to say goodbye to…but there is also much to look forward to.
God has been teaching me so much. My brain feels like it’s going to explode sometimes.
God has been doing so much with our squad at debrief. I highly recommend reading my squadmate’s blogs.
I’ve seen our hostel host accept Jesus, I have seen and prayed over a demon possessed man, and teams have changed.
If you know me well, you know how much I hate change and all things uncomfortable. I couldn’t really be more excited though. I know God is going to grow me and my new team through these changes.
(We are still debating a team name. Stay tuned.)
During prayer and worship these words were written on my heart, so I am going to share them. God is calling our generation out and He’s calling us up. With that, I leave you with this poem.
Histime
This is not the time to slink away in fear
This is not the time to doubt
This is not the time to weep selfish tears
This is not the time to wish what could have been
This is not that time
There is a time for retreating
There is a time for prayer
There is a time to weep what has ended and begun
There is a time to lift your head and look to the horizon
The sun is just coming up
This is a new day
This is that time
Your feet need to hit the ground running
Your heart needs to be set on what’s above
Your eyes, set on what is ahead
Guard your heart against the enemy
Display your soul to the world
This is the time
This is His time
Let Your glory be shown, O God
Let Your holiness be known
May we be Your vessels
May we be Your lampposts
Set on a hill, shining bright
Guiding the way back Home to You
