Thus the Journey Begins

So, the training camp experienc has been very AMAZING, for lack of a better word. To start off with, girls on my team. We may have only met about 3 days ago, but we truly are close already, and we are definitely becoming a family. I love them and I can’t wait to see how the Lord is going to use everyone in Thailand. The Lord has been giving freedom and I have been surrendering some things that were potentially going to be holding me back from the minister to these women that could hold me back. Also we have learned more of the ministry type things that we will be doing and it is soooo...

Training Camp is Too Stinkin Long

So training camp… Ah. Where to start?   Saturday: We got surprised with a “Here’s 4 tarps and 4 ropes. Build a shelter for the 27 people in your group. This is where you will be sleeping tonight…” Haha. Talk about bonding.       We had like a mansion tent and it was pretty awesome. It was absolutely freezing and we were told we could only bring 3 items. Let’s just say we all woke up angry and cold.   Sunday Night: Worship is incredible here. It’s amazing to see how the Lord works when you get together 200 people...

Break Every Chain

So.. training camp. I'm not sure there are words that would perfectly describe what these few days of training have been like. I have been so out of my comfort zone, vulnerable, and so, so free at the same time. The spirit has moved so much, in ways that i have never seen before. A reaccuring theme for me  has definately been breaking chains and God bringing his children back to him. Hosea 2:14-20 "But then I will win her back once again I will lead her into the desert and speak into her there. I will return her vineyards to her and transform the valley of trouble into a...

Breaking Chains

It’s only been four days since I headed to Georgia, and God is already making me speechless. His love, his beauty, his forgiveness, his grace, his freedom, and his plan for each one of us is something he wants to show us in his own way, own timing. His plan is so much better than our own. It was going to be hard leaving family and friends back at home, but I am already so happy that I have listened to God, and obeyed him to go on this trip. The verse for this trip is:   Isaiah 41:10 “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I...

Uncomfortable Joy

Training camp has been this really uncomfortable, sweaty, sleepless, joyful, incredible, moving, and amazing struggle.  Although the training is constant and everyone is exhausted from anticipation, sleeping outside, and travel, there is so much joy and worship of what is to come.  I can see this vision of evil fleeing from the light of God that goes before us.  I am walking down Bangla Road and I lift my hands and can literally push out the evil.  God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of love (2nd Timothy 1:7) and we are to walk in obedience with that weapon of...

Declaring Freedom from Freedom

            Training camp….where oh where to begin. I came to camp three days ago not expecting too much; you know, a few cultural classes, learning some language and growing closer to the girls. One out of three isn’t that bad right?                God has been moving in amazing ways. From night one he began meeting me in an intimate and personal place in a way that I never expected. All of this was epitomized last night in our service. When were worshipping I was met by the Holy...
