So we have just come out of screens fast and man was it good! It was a time where we shut off our computer, iPods, kindles, and any other electronic device you can name and pressed into each other as team and as a squad. It was challenging but rewarding all at the same time. It provided me with a time to step into a deeper place with the Lord. Him showing me the things I need to work on and the things he is trying to free me of. It was a time to hear his voice and allow Him to come in and do some surgery on my heart.
This screen fast has bled right into our second location- Moldova. We made it after a few little hang ups. Nothing major, just moving 49 people from point A to point B is a little tougher than one would think. Even here I saw the Lord at work in me, teaching me that He is bigger than our circumstances. (A brief back story here: Elizabeth and I waited until the day we were leaving Bucharest to purchase 49 sleeper-car-cabin train tickets and also realized said train left 40 minutes earlier than anticipated. No worries because God is good and He saw to it that after a tense couple of minutes at the train station ALL 49 tickets were bought and that all 49 people made it aboard the train.) So we have arrived safely in Chisinau Moldova and are preparing to meet with our contact Richard (also a SC guy who) and have orientation before going to our location. But man does it feel good to “shut it down” every once in a while.
