Wahooooooo

1st off sorry a/b the semi-melt down the other night (almost didn't write exactly how I was feeling b/c I felt a little stupid/vulnerable but then I thought no...just be real...it's okay. God can break down walls bt/wn people and bring true healing, fellowship, etc. by being transparent, and that's what I want (you never know how the Lord my use diff. situations/struggles/etc. for you or others) His ways are not my ways.- prob. didn't make sense anyways- I feel like my mind has been like a pinball machine lately). I haven't even been able to get excited b/c I've been that busy- (exhausted...just want to sleep for a day) BUT at least now I can get excited a/b the trip- yay!!! Praise the LORD that I made it thru the week- talk a/b a rough week AND work- out of control! Pretty sure I worked enough over time to make up for the 2 weeks I'll be gone (no seriously)! I finally can THINK a/b the trip- can't believe I leave tomorrow!

This whole thing is surreal! AFRICA in the morning- for 2 weeks!!!! Well, this is going to be SUPER short but just wanted to say bye or "kwa heri" since I'll be out of pocket for a bit! Please keep me, my team, and the Kenyan people in your prayers. Pray that the Lord goes before us (paves the way, prepares hearts, etc). Can't wait to see what He does b/c goodness knows this week was___,yeah, you know...minus a fabulous night last night with some of my favorite girls (which I will have to tell you a/b when I get back and really have time to blog:) I know He's going to move- I can feel it (esp. considering the leading up to this trip and how tough, crazy, etc...things got. Thinking a/b going to serve the Lord in a different country- no distractions-mmm! Few closing thoughts: Please pray the Lord speaks to me a/b one thing specifically (personal). Pray for His LOVE to be shown and draw people to Him (so they too can experience Him and have eternal life). Pray that we encourage. Pray for His will to be done. Etc...covet your prayers! Prayer is our power source! Rom. 8:26-27

God of Justice, Saviour to all

Came to rescue the weak and the poor
Chose to serve and not be served

Jesus, You have called us
Freely we’ve received
Now freely we will give

We must go live to feed the hungry
Stand beside the broken
We must go
Stepping forward keep us from just singing
Move us into action
We must go

To act justly everyday
Loving mercy in every way
Walking humbly before You God

You have shown us, what You require
Freely we’ve received
Now freely we will give

We must go live to feed the hungry

Stand beside the broken
We must go
Stepping forward keep us from just singing
Move us into action
We must go

Fill us up and send us out
Fill us up and send us out
Fill us up and send us out Lord (x4)

Acting humbly
Loving mercy
We must go, we must go
To the broken
And the hurting
We must go, we must go

We must go live to feed the hungry
Stand beside the broken
We must go
Stepping forward keep us from just singing
Move us into action
We MUST GO!!!

Faith is action! Got to go pack!!!!! Night!
