I just left the beautiful but cold area of Tibet. I had a wonderful time with the Tibetan people and working with a few of the local missionaries. The Lord was truly with us as we successfully had late night tract bombing in local Buddhist Monasteries. I’ve had a fantastic time with my new teammates for the last 4 days Jacques, Lana, Tauna, and myself and a few missionaries, one being Mexican. Who would have thought I would be speaking Spanish in China!
In the next few days we prepare to leave China by taking the 37 hour train ride back down to the south. As I leave China, I leave with mixed feelings. My eyes have been opened so much here. The scripture Matt. 9:37-38 came to mind quite often while I’ve been in China.
Then Jesus said to his disciples,
¡°The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers for His harvest.¡± I want to encourage you with something the Lord has laid on my heart. If you have been feeling the Lord tugging on your heart for the country of China either by being a short-term missionary, long-term missionary, pray intercessor, or financial supporter of this amazing country¡Please listen to God’s call. As I have traveled much of China in this past month, I seen and lived in many towns that have never heard the name Jesus. It is very difficult for the long-term missionaries to reach every town because there aren’t enough of them. These missionaries are doing a wonderful job and spreading the Good News even though it is illegal. China needs more laborers because the harvest is plentiful! God bless you!
On a different note¡to my wonderful family¡first, I am fine, but I did fall off the back of a motorcycle while leaving a school/orphanage with one of the missionaries. I tore up the skin on my bad knee a bit and had to rest it for a day but I am doing much better. PTL.
After taking our long train ride we will board a bus to the airport in Macao which will then fly us to Bangkok, Thailand. I may not be able to blog until Thailand so please enjoy these snapshots I took in China! I will blog as soon as I can.
