I’ve written most my blogs about what we are doing and the people we are getting to meet, so this is just s short little bit about what changes I have already seen in myself.
This month God has definitely been growing me in my obedient to small things. At home, I don’t really ever hesitate to share my beliefs with people who are asking questions, but there are often times when I know the Lord is telling me to step up and say something, pray, or give my testimony, and because of fear, shyness (which we all know I’m not very shy), or whatever the reason I don’t say anything. This month in our meetings we held with the aboriginals, God would call on me to say something or lead me to a verse He wanted me to share, and I wouldn’t say anything. I would leave the meeting feeling really guilty. Finally one night He put something on my heart to share with Russell, and I wrestled with Him for about 10 minutes, and finally the Holy Spirit was just jumping on the inside and I had to say it. It was so cool cause the words that came out were definitely not from me. Pretty much every meeting after that, the Lord has given me something to share and it has almost just become natural to share it. It’s not always comfortable, but God definitely has been using obedience, and I am very eager to see how He will continue to grow me this year.
