Blessed. Thats the word best describing my month 9 in Penang, Malaysia.
Blessed to live on an beautiful island full of such character and culture.
Blessed with sweet accommodations including a kitchen, air conditioning, and not showers.
Blessed with delicious home-cooked meals by the ridiculously talented Katie and Frank.
Blessed to be able to work with Kawan, an incredible drop-in center for the homeless and overflowing with the love of Jesus.
Blessed with incredible contacts with such beautiful hearts and inspiring passion.
Blessed to be doors down from PenHOP, a house of prayer where you can just rest and worship in the Presence of the Lord.
Blessed by a sweet friendship with an amazing, Spirit-filled woman who poured so much love and life into my soul.
All in all, my time in Malaysia was such a sweet gift from the Lord. Getting to spend time with the homeless, listening to their stories as you could feel the Father’s crazy love for them, was probably one of my favorite times on the Race. I would join their Bible study and such a sacred gathering that was. These old men are so precious. Their faith childlike. Their hearts so pure even though the world has dealt them an unfair hand. And then spending the evenings at PenHOP, praying and worshipping my Savior, soaking in His Presence as His Spirit tended to the depths of my soul. Such beautiful times where I could just sit and let the Lord lavish His love on me.
Oh how the Lord knew I needed this month. And I am so very thankful.
And now I’m in Cambodia! Woot woot! Updates to come! Hope you all are well!!
