I've been thinking and I think it's a really good idea for me to give you a run down of what God has taught me this past year so far.
China – I have nothing to be scared of because God holds me tightly in his hands.
Thailand – I can't control anything and even when I try I give up because it's too much for me to handle.
Cambodia – There are extremely good Christian men in the world, and not just in one family. They are literally world wide.
Malaysia – God speaks to me in a very clear way, and has been speaking for a very long time. My dreams mean something, usually they are strange and I have to pray about what they actually mean. Christmas is by far the best Holiday. Well, that and Easter. I can't focus on what other people think, my main focus can't be on if someone actually understands that Christmas has nothing to do with present.
Japan – My testimony has power and I shouldn't be scared of what anybody is going to think of me because the only person I need to answer to is God.
Albania – I'm not exactly sure how this one came about, but I'm not scared of marriage anymore and it would actually be a cool thing with the right person.
Bulgaria – I need to be in very close communication with God so that I don't let things that don't matter effect my attitude. Like something that is say, video games, or technology in general. I learned about my distraction this month, and to figure out when I need to get focused.
Romania – I love, love, love God and the peace he brings when my heart is clear. Also how Jesus had all this power and didn't use half of it and when he did he usually told the person not to say anything.
Next month I will be in Ukraine. Yes, I know what is going on in Ukraine and it's not half as bad as the media is making it out to be. We are going to be on the other side of Ukraine, opposite from where all the action is. I can't wait to see what God has in store for me to learn next month, or what I'm going to learn when my parents get here.
Prayer requests:
1. Pray for parents week, that everything goes smoothly.
2. Pray for my team, always pray for my team.
3. Pray for my squad, we are all struggling from different things, from team issues to just being plain homesick.
4. Pray for next month and any changes that might or might not happen
5. Pray that we have a deeper and deeper passion for Christ and his word.
