Sorry it's been forever! Last week was really busy, and I didn't really get a chance to just sit down and type what's been going on. Also, last week was kinda God teaching me that it's ok not to have everything figured out and processed and put into eloquent words on paper. Even if I don't have energy/ wisdom to process and work through what He's been teaching me, He is still faithful to grow my in His perfect way. He is so good and so gracious, and he will show me who he is, despite my striving. I don't know if that makes any sense, but that's kinda where I've been.
So last week was good. We learned about the character and nature of God and just learned to ask "Who are you Lord?" before asking "who am I?" and all these other good but secondary questions. God is just showing me how much of Him I don't know yet, but get to enjoy knowing every day. And it's really exciting.
Thursday I got to go to this thing called JAFFA, which is kinda like Young Life Club in the States. It was really cool just to be Christ to these kids and love on them and play games with them... I really enjoyed it. Then we got to go to the mall and just ask God what His heart was for the people we saw and just pray into that by ourselves... which was also really cool because that's how we should live all the time.
It's been rainy every day pretty much here and kinda cold... so needless to say, we haven't been to the beach since last weekend, which is a huge bummer. But we're making it with other sources of entertainment, like the game Mafia. Friday night we played it for hours... haha.
Another reason I haven't really kept in touch lately is that I've been sick lately. I woke up Saturday morning with a cold or whatever and have been sick ever since. But God is a Healer and is so good because I woke up today (Tuesday) feeling a ton better. God is teaching me that even if I don't have "energy" or "passion" to pour out to Him, it doesn't matter because he is constant and faithful to show Himself to me and teach me what he wants.
I'm sure there is more I am missing... last week was busy and a ton of stuff. But as I remember I'll try to update this more! I'm also going to put up new pics on facebook, but right now the internet is overloaded and we can't upload, but soon!!
Oh yeah, this week, we are learning about the Fatherheart of God (if you wanted to know).
And...... I think that is all!
thanks for your prayers as always!
christy
