Today is the first day in I don't even know how long that our WHOLE TEAM is out on the streets sharing today! Woohoo! SO good to have everyone back. Yesterday we didn't see a lot of fruit, but there was surprisingly little discouragement. We had an incredible time of worship. The Spirit just keeps filling us up more and more! I have come to adore every single person on my team. I've made so many close friends. These guys and gals are truly my family. We have each others' backs and I LOVE IT. Today is our second to last day to share. I have personally not yet seen any salvations, but I'm believing for Love encounters today! Either way, I know that God has used my time here to do His will. I know I have part in the inheritance and I will choose to live in no regret. Any regrets are covered in the blood of Jesus! My team and I are going at it hard these last two days. We want to see God do more crazy things! Personally, I'd kind of like to see Him raise someone from the dead. I mean... He did it... I've heard of others praying and dead raising... His power is in me and my teammates, so I wanna see His Kingdom come in that way!! Either way, my time here has been good. I'm adjusting to the culture. I bobble my head like an Indian all the time. It's half annoying, half hilarious. I'm ready to see my family, but I know I'll miss the time I've spent here, so I'm choosing to live for today! God is so good friends. Man, I can't wait to see how He moves in the next two days.
"Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage, and the ends of the earth your possession." Psalm 2:8
That's our cry right now! We have crazy dreams for this city. But we have an even crazier God = )
On a different note, I have still not fulfilled many of my random goals for my time here. I hope to complete them... In fact, I'm set on it.
1. Get a henna tattoo- the girls here have some awesome ones. I just have to find somewhere to get it done! Most of the girls do it themselves so they don't know where to tell us to go. If I figure out where to go, I think I'm going to get some flower design on my hand as it was the word given to me concerning my time here. I have a friend who wants to get a sun design since that was the word given over here. Speaking of that word, let me talk about that a bit... Julie Bennett, our pastor's wife, spoke over each of us the night before we left. Her word for me was that I was a flower who was going to blossom on this trip. Satan was going to try to stop that, but I couldn't let him. I had all kinds of ideas of what me blossoming might look like, but I'm not sure I imagined what it turned out to be! I've opened up to people in a whole new way. I'm truly becoming Makenzi the Bold as I used to declare over myself. I still am my quiet self, but I enjoy people so much more! That sounds terrible. I've always loved people but have also been a loner. I've learned how to cope without having alone time, which I KNOW will be beneficial in the future. I've made some great friends. I've learned to enjoy games. I've learned to step out of my comfort zone. I've learned to initiate. I've learned to speak what God tells me with boldness. Those are just a few. God, more sunshine! More rain! I want to blossom more and more!!
2. I want to be taught an Indian dance by some girls here! Just got to meet someone who I'd feel comfortable asking!
3. Ride a moped- Not sure that one's gonna happen but maybe in the US hahah
Ok that's enough for now. It's time to head out for the day. Keep praying. You all are awesome!!
