Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!! I can not believe 2014 has already come and gone!
On this day 5 years ago I was sitting in the old Harvest Oc building listening to Pastor Greg Laurie give a message. I do not remember what he said, but I do remember that during the alter call it was time to fully make my relationship with God my own. Therefore I went forward where Greg led a group of people in prayer asking God to forgive our sins and reign in our lives. After that day I no longer lived off my parents faith, but by my own.
Little did I know that 5 years laters God would call me to the missions field where I get to talk about Jesus with so many people… in Thailand of all places! This past month I’ve seen almost 100 kids from the age of 9-15 years old pray the same prayer I prayed 5 years ago (well, a similar one).The Lord has also given me the opportunity to lead bible studies, heal people’s ears, encourage my teammates, pass out Samaritan purse boxes and etc. I will not say that this past month has been easy, it has actually been rather difficult. I will say that God is faithful no matter the circumstance, the place, or the person. He has been with my team and I in every part of this month.
Even though I am all the way in Thailand, next month my parents will be joining me in the field!!! AKA I get to spend my birthday with them while we serve the Lord together! I am beyond excited for that! Then in March we will begin our time in Zambia! I do not know what we will do there or what ministry we will be with, but I do know that God has something AWESOME planned for us!
Thank you to everyone who has been apart of my past, present, and future! We serve an awesome God that knows exactly what kind of friendships we need and when we need them. I thank the Lord for all the people He has put in my life, so thank you for being one of them!
Prayer Requests:
?Please join me in praying for the kids who have accepted Jesus into their Hearts.
?Pray for the Pastor, his wife (Dar), and their son (Peter).
?Pray for unity and strength within my team. Ministry days are really long and we use our voices a lot!
?Pray for me. I have been feeling really homesick and have not been sleeping the best.
