This past week has been really good. Tim Heathcote was with us. Whoah. I don't really know what to say at this moment other then he was really good. The week long example was "Mind the Gap". There are gaps in our culture and around the world. Statistics like in some muslim nations there are only 3 christians to every 1 million muslims. (thats a gap) The numbers of people who live on less then two dollars a day and then the even more staggering number of people who live on less that one dollar a day. Gaps are everywhere and people are falling into the gap. Tim showed us and challenged us on what God thinks of the gaps and then really challenged us to ask and pursue how we might stand in the gap.
Early in the week during one of the workshops Tim spoke about Ebenezer and Jehovah Jireh.
God who will provide and God who has provided.
It has gotten me thinking about all the times in my life God has been my Ebenezer and provided for me. Because of those times I am able to stand up and have faith that he will provide in my future. He has been faithful to me. Tim encouraged us to explore a creative physical Ebenezer. Something that we can have that reminds us of that time and what God did. Just as in the Old Testament and how He told them to build a monument so to always remember what He did for them in the fight at Ebenezer.
Okay so, on top of a really good message I found out where I am going on outreach. I am going to THAILAND!!!!!! Yeah. We will be leaving sometime between the 3-5th of December. I know its only 3 weeks away now. Its crazy!! Yeah. So, there is a lot we have to do still to get ready but it is crazy! AH! It is going to be a crazy faith journey with God but I am pumped.
We are not 100% sure everything we will be doing while we are there but I am stoked to be going. I am relying on God for my financial provision. Before I left home I really felt him telling me to worry about Lecture. That I was to have Lecture and He would cover the rest. So, this is the fun/terrifying part. To rely on him. He is faithful and I know it will be amazing. I just have not stepped out onto this branch before. It will be a faith walk for sure.
If you feel God pressing it upon your heart to help support me in this crazy venture in my life you can send a check to my home address:

I love you all!!
I really felt to write a blog post. I had been putting it off and I really felt an urgent need to post something. I will most likely come back and flush out this post more but for what ever reason I needed to post this it is here.
Until next time, go play in some leaves.
