Hellooooo!!!!! I hope you have enjoyed the photos!! A lot happened in Malaysia (month 4). It was a jam packed month. We were always on the go with ministry which was awesome due to all the downtime the previous month in Australia. We also had team changes at the end of Australia! Our new team is awesome!!! They have such a joy in their walk with Christ. We laugh all the time, yet we are focused on bringing God’s Kingdom to Earth!! We are now known as Team Rooted (U Squad)!!!
So hear is the deal with the pictures from left to right and from top to bottom:
1) When we first got there we went to a street feeding to help out with and to talk with and love people. They do it every saturday which is really awesome!
2) At the street feeding, i spoke to this man named Albert. I have never had a more intense conversation with anyone in my life. I also have never felt the Holy Spirit work through me like that. All of the word that were coming out of my mouth were from God himself!!!! IT was incredible!!! Words that were coming out of my mouth were teaching him while at the same time teaching me too hahaha!! It was insane!!!!!!!!!! I love it and my prayers are that God keeps speaking through me and that i have tangible experiences such as that all the time! The two hour conversation also solidified the fact that we are at spiritual warfare at all times and that the spiritual world is absolutely and positively real. I used to ignore it, but God was not going to let that happen any longer.
3-10) We worked at a Burmese school/church. Malaysia has many Burmese refugees due to the persecution going on in Myanmar these days. We taught at this school, but we mostly transformed it. We cleaned it, painted it, brought in desks for the kids and just loved the kids. Pastor was an awesome dude. We became really close to him. There is a little before and after deal in the pictures. The church/school has a lot of color now, but the most important thing is God’s light. He delights in their surrender and their fellowship there. The group picture is some of the kids one of our contacts ( who is an incredible man of God/ never takes time for himself and is always blessing other people, especially schools of the Burmese), our team, the new squad leaders (recently promoted and totally anointed by God), and Pastor. It was a really incredible experience blessing that place and just serving our hearts out. The were a blessing to us as well. We also threw them a party with games and a slide show about America and had a dance party!!! It was a Blaaaaaasssssttt!! All the kids had so much fun!! I also never knew how to make balloon animals until that day and i am really good at making dogs because i think about 30 kids wanted me to make them one hahahahaha.
11) Ty (my awesome teammate) and I leading worship at a prayer meeting. God has totally blessed me in giving me the aptitude to learn the guitar fast. I thank him so much for it!! I picked up the guitar and the next night playing in front of people. Craaaaaazzzzzyyyy! I want to learn more of it and believe God is calling me to learn more music in his name!!
12) One of the weekends we were there, we went to a village to stay for a couple of days to visit different churches that an awesome missionary had planted. This man was awesome and just loved worshiping God and ministering to the people in the villages. That is a group picture of the first church we went to and the gentleman in the wheelchair sang us two songs, one he wrote and it was beautiful!! God has for sure given him a gift to write music. We visited a total of six churches and all of us (6 of us) had to prepare a word to preach. So we all quite successfully gave sermons and really let the Holy Spirit speak through us! It was awesome!!!!!!!!First sermon i have ever given and i hope not the last. Considering the things the God and the World Race throw at us, I don’t think it will be the last time i give a sermon.
Malaysia was an incredible month filled with Joy, work , and hardships spiritually. Our contacts were unbelievable people. They touch our lives and totally invested in us. Their knowledge of God’s word were inspiring and extremely helpful. The genuine love that they had for every person was something that i will always strive for. They have made a huge impact on my spiritual life and i thank them so much!! It was an incredible blessing just being in their presence. Anyway that is the blog i hope ya’ll enjoyed. I will be more diligent about posting them as well. We are now in India which is an awesome country with a lot of need of physical things, but mostly the love and hope of Christ. Please lift India up in your prayers. I love all of ya’ll and thank you for supporting and reading. Until next time God Bless!!!! GOD IS GREAT!!!!
