hey everyone! So sorry it's been two weeks since I have updated! Last tuesday we went to a cricket game with a group of people from church so we only had internet for about 20 minutes. It was a wonderful day, but I'm sorry I didn't get to update you all on what's been going on! The last two weeks have been so amazing, but there have been some trying moments. The kids at the school and orphanage are continuing to capture my heart every time I get to hang out with them! Last Wednesday I unfortunately wasn't feeling the best and since the kids are already sick, I can't really be around them when I'm not feeling great--I missed them so much, I can't wait til tomorrow when I get to hang out with them again! Aurora, the school we work with, is on break until next week..so we also didn't get to see them last week. It was weird not getting to go work with them and I definitely missed them, but the Lord used that spare time for me to really spend some intimate time with Him. With the business over the past few weeks I haven't got to spend the amount of time with Him that I needed to. It's so awesome to see His sovereignty in every situation--He knows exactly when I need to just sit and spend time in His word--He knows when I need encouragement from the people around me--He knows exactly when I need to be refreshed and He gives according to that. It was beyond amazing in the last week to get to spend some intentional time with my Father and see His plan for the nations and how I get the opportunity to play a part in that. I also am in the middle of reading radical--my awesome mom sent it to me! God is continuing to blow my mind with each page that I read--the scripture in that book is so challenging! God is definitely using it to open my eyes to His true plan!
We have had the opportunity to do some really cool things in the past few weeks though--we got to walk and feed full grown tigers and we got to go to a cricket game! Both of these were such cool experiences. Getting to spend time with the sweet girls the Lord has given me the opportunity to serve alongside over the next few months, as well as with the friends He has given us here was so refreshing and fun! Thank you all so much for your prayers and encouragement! I love and miss you all so very much!The Lord is doing amazing things here, as I'm sure He is at home! What a mighty God we serve--He deserves everything I have to give--I am being challenged to start living like that everyday! Almost to the halfway point--keep lifting us up in prayer!!!
